Both return around 33 to 35 mpg on a long journey so around 435 to 460 to a tank very light throttle no boost, and once you are at speed literally freeze your foot , hard work on a long run but a challenge that’s were cruise control would be nice , sensible ish i get 27 , daily with a bit of fun/ boost is around 24 or so as i tend to sit at 80 mph on motorways as with all speedos they off read by 3 or 4 mph so about 320 miles to the tank , when they were mapped they were both leaned off a bit when it was on very light throttle which seemed to help with economy , if i’m shifting around 2500 rpm and stick to 70 then again a good return as above on a long run , but i do like having fun getting to the speed limit or i may as well by a three pot 1 litre turbo focus , the mrs is trying to compete getting best fuel economy , she’s getting good at it but has now bought a mx5 which is a 2 litre go kart
Fitted the mishimoto radiator and have done about 200 miles in the car and all is good!
Really impressed with how this car performs!
just need to clean it at some point!
No mate, as much as I would have loved it BPR cleared be out after selling me the car,wheels,another exhaust and the tablet and OBD key thingy....then I had to budget some cash for the engine repair.

your doing a top job pal and it can all be replaced if you want in future
Sent the steering wheel off to jack at Royal wheels this morning for a Re trim.
Will get some pics up when i get it back.
I'll be taking my new STI wheel there. I've only seen good things from them and until I looked last week I had absolutely no idea they were based literally 5 minutes from my house. Madness.

Can't wait to see how yours comes out.
Will let you know what I think of it when I get it back
