Point is the Turbo engines are more fuel efficient then their non turbo counterparts with the same power output. (Which is the same thing you just said and all I was posting about).

So yes if you would like me to rephrase I know at WOT I am not picking up the efficiency. But overall I can flog the turbo engine the same as I would the non-turbo and acheive a higher overall MPG.

Wow next time I wont make a comment without a scientific disertations and maybe a few references to the laws of physics in there as well.
Trying to get 30mpg in a car that is designed to be driven hard is kinda off... If you're going to baby it to get 30mpg, why are you buying an M3?

BTW, even if you are not WOT, still the same thing. if you need 150hp to accelerate, you will burn same amount of fuel whether NA or turbo or sc...
