Hey Agades,
If you're running bio then you can expect to get 8% less mpg for 100% bio. So, if you're running B20, then you can expect to get 8% less mpg on 20% of your fuel. That should give you the net effect of losing about 1.6MPG.

Well it is very hard for me to tell because of different driving habits/conditions and mods. But I averaged 19.1mpg on a 400 mile Interstate trip a few weeks ago. II SPS66, TST(twins) on 3/3, 315s, 48re, 3.73 and cruise on 74mph. This is not anywhere near the high numbers some post, but that is the best I have ever got. And more than I thought I would ever see in this truck. Before the II SPS66, stock turbo and HOT Juice/Attitude on 3/3 would normally be around 16.5 - 17mpg for same trip.

not sure if its B20 or what
I just know our wonderful leaders signed a bill that we have to have a certain percentage of soy diesel
that was about the same time I swapped turbos and noticed about 2-3 mpg loss
