Default Those with superchargers...gasmilage

I was curious to see what kind of gas milage those with super chargers are getting, preferably those with the vortech but if your supercharged post it anyways. I am getting 15/16 city and 23 or so highway, does that sound right? either way it's fun to step on the gas!

About 9mpg according to the in-dash computer. Of course, most of my miles are loading/unloading the car on the trailer, idling in the pits and flooring it down the 1/4, so I'm satisfied with that.
