No idea how to find the car but there is a toyota crown with a turboed 4.5 lt in it and it runs 12 second quarters. My mechanic works on it. I am sure the injectors and computer are not standard but it is probably a bit hotter than what you are looking at. Why would you want to put more petrol through the donk?

It will most likely be more efficient with a bit of boost and cruise around much easier thus use a few drops less on an average trip. However if your getting stuck into it a lot then it will obviously drain the tank a lot quicker.

That combined with a dyno tune will see it being an economical truck for what it will be able to do. Economy is not always about saving fuel, its time an effort also.

Boosted petrol 'Cruiser will be a weapon!
