I'm guesing it varies quite widely with mods and stuff.
I got 220 - 230 with a standard uk 2000
I got 200 - 220 with a uk 2000 had a ss exhaust and induction kit

All with a full tank of V power before light cam on and was always around a 50 l fill up.

You must drive it hard mate , 60 ltr tank -180 miles that's less than 15 mpg lol. I find if I hold my uk turbo at 60 mph whilst Motorway cruising it's around 24-26 mpg,town driving normally sees that plummet to about 18 - 20 mpg.anything over 100 mph and on boost 12 - 15 mpg,and on a trackday lucky to get 8-9 mpg.

Don't forget you have an ice cream cone shaped tank, so the next half will only be 50 miles
