Okay when i got the car i ran it till the petrol light came on solid without flashing then topped it up with 20 quid of normal unleaded then drove like an old person to see the most i could get out of it and then both my bro and dad blew about a 5ers worth out the back on the straights.

 

Astonishingly managed to get 130 miles on 20 quids worth of petrol!!!!

 

Then just to make sure it wasn't a fluke topped it up with 40 today to go to peterborough way and back and managed 134 quid, using very little boost, almost none, never revving it past 3.5k and did that on less than 20 quids worth????

 

What's going on? That's like 35mpg! from a twin turbo?????

 

My question is.....

 

How????? :confused: :confused: :confused: :confused:

You will love it when its deristricted, once you get up past 120 and the car your racing starts to lag behind, its then you realise you are still pulling hard, and that feels so good.

 

Oh that sounds rude sorry.

The last time I put in Optimax, I got 40 miles for £30 and very strong smells of unburnt fuel. I have now tried 'ESSO SUPREME' and get approx 80 miles for £25 no unburnt fuel smells (same style of driving)... Very strange :confused:

Bloody hell. Thats about 4 mpg. That cant be right. Can it? lol

i would fix the leak you have? :shock:

last time i sat in the drivers seat of mine i did stanstead to battle and the guage didnt move at all!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

it was on a trailer though :(

pmsl :rofl:

I regularly get 260 miles off £55 of Optimax driving mainly at 'motorway' speeds.

I get 500 miles for £60.

i would fix the leak you have? :shock:

 

I have got a Smithy fuel line kit and even relocated the fuel regulator to nearer the battery, there are no leaks there, may have a look underneath at the weekend, I have a feeling the o2 sensors are buggered though as it has just done 70,000 miles and I dont think theyv'e been changed, it also has a mines ecu which is notorious for making it run rich. Anyone know if the o2 sensors could cause that much fuel to be drunk, it does have the blackest exhaust pipes I have ever seen too and I drive like I stole it !!!

i seem to be gaining weight on my right foot lately as my mpg has gone rotten...either that or the fact im now boosting at 12psi
