Just wondering how many miles my family
saloon car I can expect for a tenner
I know it won't be a lot but I'm talking about when I just drive to and from work with minimal boost.
As for the family saloon car - thats what I tell the insurance

Will let you know how many miles Im getting after a ECUTEK remap this friday, ha ha, after fitting 3 plug boost solinoid from a version 4 sti Type , NGK Iridum Pugs plus leads, Walbro fuel pump,fuel regulator, 550cc injectors, OBXR TD06-20G turbo, Wrapped equal headers, wrapped two to one uppipe, wrapped 3.5inche downpipe de-cat, straight through to back box.
the tuners Estimate is around the 360BHP+ mark, but fuel consumption will about 16 - 18 to the gallon
Im lucky
The least I ever got was 167miles to chugging empty.
I normally get between 40-50 miles to a 10nr that's mixed driving.
I did manage 340miles to a tank once - on the motorway doing a steady speed

UK Turbo 2000 with Full HKS decat, TD05, PowerStation TMIC and ecu and a 3 port boost solenoid.

Depends on your power and where your driving.
In town then your looking at about 20mpg, so about 40 miles, on a run your looking at low to mid 30's depending on your driving style in a mid 200 bhp car.

Thats cool then, I do around 40miles a week to work. Yes I know it's only a mile to work but it's all up hill so I can't walk.
So I'm happy paying around £15 a week.

v power is the stuff. there seem to be a mass difference between what mpg people are getting on here i have a 97 wrx 352.bhp and i get at least 250miles out of my full tank and its a 55 liter tank or 60, but if im plodding about in town and that even on a tenner i see about 35 -45
i read an article saying that the v power gives better mpg and that you actually save money by using this, this was even taking into account the fact that it costs more.
do you guys think that this is the case?
where do you guys find the cheapest petrol is?
