200 miles to half a tank?????
First of all well done, something you might want to get checked out is that your car might be running a little lean, something to bear in mind. I've lost track of what the zed does to the gallon though as I always tonking it :D

-
how many mods do you have ?? (poll)
Yeah what about twin turbos :D ?
-
Intercoolers
I think the Greddy side mounts are very good, they fit in the stock position and use the OEM ducts!, Have a word with chris at getgreddy!
-
Intercoolers
Indeed CJ is right, and there are a few people who have overheating probs with front mounts, uprated side mounts are the way yo go for you, plus you avoid the plumbing nightmare with the FMIC!

T28's or uprated t25's???????????
The only really decent upgrade for turbos is the JWT 530 BB! But you would need the IC's, 550's, Remap, dual intake to take advantage of them! Get the 360 bearings thats a no brainer, if you ain't going for the JWT's! All the T25/28 hybrids are a bit of a mystery if you don't have the spec on them, and the current injectors are really running full chat so any upgrade turbo wise would be difficult to take advanatge of!

Overheating or not
Lymon for zed oracle :D

Overheating or not
Ryan just in case you are getting running temps of 75, it could mean the ecu temp sender is faulty. I believe this is, at 80ish degrees, meant to tell the ecu that everything is running correctly, if it is not sending that signal to the ecu then the car will not be running right.
-
Overheating or not
Never heard of a zed running 75 degress before, since the thermostat opens at 76.5, are you talkiing about idling temp or running temp? Unless you have an aftermarket rad or thermostat? Yeah sure 100 degrees is not desirable and gives you less headway for error, but that is what cars are designed for these days. It obviously depends on what speed you are doing, but Motorways can cause a problem in that air can be travelling too fast through the rad to cool it effectively, combined with the increased running temp of the engine.
-
Overheating or not
The zed always runs higher than 80 degress at least, after it is warmed up, while motorway driving the temp gets even higher, with consistent temps in the 90s, of course each zed has it's own characteristics!
-
Overheating or not
210 farenheit chris is just under boiling point for water, but that is not an excessive temperature for engines these days! You could flushing your rad and refilling with fresh AF and a couple of bottles of water wetter
-
Improving handling??
Bridgestones and toyos are meant to be the best tyres for the zed at the mo! Some of the best sussy mods are meant to be rear strut bar, then followed by uprated anti roll bars!
