Mileage on the TRD supercharger

HI,
Does anyone have any idea on the mileage after you have installed the TRD supercharger?
Thanks,

I get between 17 and 20 miles per gallon with the suprecharger.

Supercharger ownership requires being a leadfoot. There is just no avoiding it.

1996 Supercharged 3.4.L

I consistently got 17 mpg on my 5sp manual w/o the SC. After supercharging, I consistently get 19. The best was 21 on a trip to Utah with 2 dirt bikes in tow. I'd guess 1000 lbs w/ the lite duty trailer included.
