suprafan72 Posted June 21, 2007 Share Posted June 21, 2007 All... I thought i would do an experiment and see what the worst mpg i could achieve on the road.. Well I did 65 miles of very sprited driving...nearly all 3 to 5 WOT runs... I achieved 4.1 miles per gallon... Can't help but love it..

Thanks. Lovin yours too mate. I've been reading the other thread and it sounds an awesome bit of kit and only at 1.3 bar at the minute. 1.6 / 1.7 will see some real good figures. I wanna change from the stock inlet and TB at some stage but brakes has gotta come first lol niiiiiiiiiiiice, slight hi-jack, 1) how do you find the pirellis as i am considering these myself 2) how the f**k do you stop on those j-spec brakes:looney: 3) crackin car mate, very nice 1. Pirellis are ok but tbh they're not great in the wet. That might have something to do with the width of mine though. They last well and I tend to bottle it round corners before they do lol. 2. With regards to stopping... ummm... I don't lol. 3. Thanks also Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
