yeah thought it might be the case... went in my mates TT again today, 1.8 turbo. Averaging 38.6 mpg and booting it quite a bit!
think turbo engine use less petrol than N/A engine! 
yeah.. I mean it makes sense really, it needs the turbo to produce the power equivalent to that of the ST. When you're cruising in the ST it's always guzzling, if you're cruising with the turbo'd car, it won't be guzzling in the same way... wish mine was a 1.8 turbo 
its not too late to change!! did see with the revs counter than the GTI does revs less then the ST at the same speed! that surely help as well!
yeah definitely. I mean it has the power to allow the lower gear ratios. The ST has always needed a 6th gear.
It is too late, I have bought mine on finance stuck with it for a while now!
well next time then! the next ST should be a turbo engine!

Absolutely! I am aiming for a turbo next, and if I can't find the right petrol, it will be a diesel! Maybe an A5 3l TDi, have to get saving though haha
yes start saving hard now!! don't go for the 2.7 TDI version cos it slow!
