use a program like Road Trip on the iphone or take down your travelled kms and then:
how much you pumped / how many you travelled
That way you wont be getting inaccurate readings based on what the needle says

Hey fellas ....FN2R using 98RON either Vortex or Ultimate (don't have Vpower here),
initially getting the car it was running about 9.5l/100km
after putting on the CAI and cat-back exhaust car is running rich but achieved 8.7l/100kms
(burple/pops in the exhaust when shifting of letting go of the throttle)
now i've gone with lighter rims, and taken out anything that not necessary that adds when driving to drop the weight according to my ODM trip log i'm getting on average 8.3l/100kms
gets me about 450-500kms a tank depending on how i'm driving
i'm thinking with a tune it could go down even more
Come to conclusion that using BP ultimate enable me to drive up tp 500km or some time 520km/tank.
How tiny? 500k? in surburan streets? or highway.
I usually get 500 to 560 in surburan streets until the last bar in fuel off (I live in gold coast). I tried last time with high way drive from Gold Coast to Sunshine coast and should be able o get more than 650 (cruise control on).
If it says 91 on the box you are wasting money putting anything else in believe me, yes its psychological.
quick tip though ... if you fill 91 you should put in a tank of premium or 98 aprrox once a month...it'll help clear out all the crap left behind by the additives in the lower octance fuels (ie like the purple dye used to colour 91ron fuel)
seriously? ever since i got my car, the most ive gotten out of my fn2 is 458kms (yes i do keep track), worst was 348kms..Quote:

do u do a lot of freeway driving or what?
half n half ?
car got better as the time went on from when i first got it
i've lightened up the load on the car tho so that would help a bit, saved all up about 30+ kgs
to break it down
exhaust saved about 7kgs
intake i guess 2kgs (from all that plastic tubing)
rims 20kgs (5kgs per wheel)
spare tyre 5kg (i think)
should be getting flashpro sometime in the future too so hopefully that should help a bit more......if i'm not trying to vtec it all the time haha
try not to leave it too low to fill up all the time petrol evaporates like crazy ! so the more air you leave in the fuel tank the more room the fuel has to evaporate intoQuote:

sound petty but if you think about it over a long period of time it adds up i guess
if its a sports exhaust you are probably driving it a bit harder to listen to it.Quote:
