My STI8 likes a good drink aswell.

Not that much though, try using 6th mate.

Just filled up today. From full to "E" in 173 miles, 15.9 MPG (Optimax). Might have to start using 6th. J

My sti8 obviously has a hole in the fuel tank - and a dent on the carpet underneath the gas pedal!

make sure you know where all the shell garages are.

if you have a problem with mpg, you've bought the wrong car.

it's worth every penny.
