What is the average gas milage for a Dodge turbo?

I was getting about 29mpg until I upgraded to a 3" swing valve and exhaust from Turbos Unleashed. my gas milage with up to 35mpg and later dropped to 34mpg.

Ya, I think some of those hybrids are a joke most of them only get 20% better milage (dodge, chevy, ford,) that is BS. especially since you can change the way you drive and get 20%.
when I get the money I am going to install TU's new manifold, I hope it will improve GM. I am happy with the way my car runs now, still HP improvement for a small amount of money is great. My upgrades are +40 injectors new fuel rail, 255pump, 3"SV and exhaust.

yeah, with that new manifold can you put litterally any turbo you want on it? so then really putting a hybrid on isn't that much work? (with that manifold)
