I went ahead and tried disconnecting and plugging the line to the
boost enrichment. Admittedly it was mostly with the A/C running
and a little idling to keep the car cooler inside but I just got the
worst mileage since break-in, 34.8mpg. It usually gets 36 to 37
with the A/C and 39 without. So I had a lack of power AND the
same or slightly worse mileage.
I've always found I get better mileage with more fuel under boost,
than with less. <shrug>
