In my case im lucky to get 460km with no freeway driving as i love to push my ITR but then again thats the price you pay aswell when you've modified it to lol
As others have said "don't cheap out on these cars"
i have only ever used bp ultimate i my car....
first and foremost... for me, i believe out of all the 98RON fules, v power burns way too fast.. bp ultimate is the best imo.
But i get around 500km to my tank, but my reading is average of 9.0litres / 100km
i drive basically 250km cruising, and 250 spirited.
The other weekend, i went RNP and went up and down about 6/7 times... Gave it a good squirt! and i still got 500 km afterwards.
Also when you shift, the best time for shifting for power/fuel economy, i shift @ 3K
so shift anywhere from 2500-3000rpm. shifting around 2Krpm- dc5's struggle.
I also use a website called fuelly that tracks my fuel consumption; www.fuelly.com
I jsut punch in the price i paid for my fuel, the km i done, and the amount of litres i filled up. Tells me all this info and average consumption etc!
ull prob have to run 98 ron for a 1-2 tanks before it starts to show some improvement also.
BP Ultimate or Mobil 8000.
Mobil 8000 some reason pulls much better then Ultimate in my ITR but thats IMO...
Problem with Mobil is that there ain't to many of them around ..
i agree, thats why i choose to stick with BP, so many around.Quote:

lol, its actually 6.9km per L :DQuote:

Actually its what i said.
1100 kms using 76L
1100/76 = 14.47
To check, 14kms for 1L so 76 x 14 = 1100.
The 6.9 is L/100kms
I think...
my dc4 im getting anywhere from 280-380kms on synergy 6000 with a 40 litre tankQuote:
