ok so thats how i'm getting such better mpg. my tank is slightly larger at 10.5-11 gals in the Paseo :)....about $52 to fill up



Your US Gallons are smaller than ours, so they are prob the same size.

you're right, i forgot about that

4.545 liters per gal compared to 3.79 liters per gal :(

i really hate our wacked system of measurement

I wouldn't worry about it, there's about 2 whole countries in the world that use US Gallons lol, so it's definately worth existing.

41.69 liters for 11 US gal Tank

41.814 liters for 9.2 UK Gal Tank

Sound about the same then.

I was only 1 country out, although that is 33% of the US gallon market.

But then it's illegal in the UK to sell anything by the gallon, so it's all retarded.

And so we don't stray too far off topic, I got 350 miles to a tank on the motorway journey to Le Mans

I took a cruise to cornwall the other week. Filled the tank up and put £42 of V-power in her. I got 225 miles until it hit the fuel light.
I was not booting it and tried not to hit the turbo too much.
I thought i would be getting alot more miles considering my car only has a filter,fmic and catch can... Should i be worrying? :S

I get around 190-200 of 'B' road miles to a tank of V-Power, straight to a rape-me station as soon as the light flickers though.
