Default RE: Most boost?

You need to put premium in it and flip the switch on the console to premium to see where you are at right now. Then turn up the boost from there. How much boost you run has absolutely nothing to do with mileage, it's how well you can restrain yourself from standing on it to feel the rush of boost that affects the mileage.
