Being supercharged vs. turbocharged will have little-to-no impact on fuel consumption. Both variants will suck fuel down. Your problem with the Frontier 'eating' fuel probably has more to do with the fact that it's a 4,000 lb truck. Plus, the direct injection system of the LNF turbo helps with the fuel a little bit.
