Think about it this way:

At full boost my 550cc injectors were running about 75% duty cycle. So lets calculate for 50% duty cycle, to account for on/off/part throttle.

225cc x 4 = 900cc/min = .9 liters/min = 0.238 gallons/min

Figure an average speed of 60 mph to make it easy, so 0.238 gallons/mile

1/0.238 = 4.20 miles per gallon

Of course you will be doing a little better than that, but running around at WOT all the time is certainly not good for economy.
