...ordered the PPP for my STi8 that is !!!!!

Hopefully in time for fitting at the 10,000 miles service. Took Keith Prices demonstrator for a spin, and although it was obviously quicker than my standard STi wasn't really sure whether it justified the cost. Drove the same road again in mine, looked at the speedo and realised just how fast I had been travelling !!!! Pulled over and rang KP to order it there are then !

Any comments on the effect on fuel - especially Sammy and Scoobieblue...what sort of mileages are you getting on a tank full ?

Cheers
Gareth

i agree with you, probablly not worth 2k but if you want to keep your warranty its worth it, i get about 230 to a tank around town, its on 185 with a quarter left at the mo, just put a straight through section instead of the centre silencer on, sounds better but nowhere near as loud as my old p1 !

Thumbs up

Thanks for the comments...they're the sort of figures I was expecting..not much different to what I'm getting now.

Andy - I don't think I'll be at Margam Sunday, probably have to go to Newbury to cover rugby. Feel free to email me privately however if you aren't ready to post the problem on SN, I would be interested to hear whats happened.

Mark - yep, keeping the warranty was vital for me...I am pleased that the car has a more vocal track than before, but still not to loud for the long trips

Thanks guys, will keep you informed
Gareth
