Just wondering what sort of MPG people are getting from their standard EP's? From the 3/4 mark to 1/4 full on my V I got about 110miles the other day..is this about right? This was with some quite spirited driving as well like lol.

I was getting 250 k so around 150 miles between 3/4 to 1/4 but less now craic in mani. A full thank was getting little over 40 mpg but as above lucky to get 450 k 33mpg. This is normal daily driving with bits boost my gt is fairly standard only fmic really and standard boost.

Slight crack appearing in my mani too..maybe that has something to do with it. This was mostly motorway driving with heavy acceleration on the B-roads home again :) suppose its not too bad! It would break your heart the price of petrol these days especially the proper juice you're supposed to use!

415K = 257.869 miles.
There is 30 litres to the red light, 37 litres in total in the tank.
37 litres divided by 4.545 = 8.14 UK gallons.
30 litres divided by 4.545 = 6.6 UK gallons.
257.869 miles divided by 8.14 gallons = 31.679 miles per gallon if it was a full tank
257.869 miles divided by 6.6 gallons = 39.071 miles per gallon if it was to the red light

I estimate around 150-160bhp its still a bit sharper than stock. Waiting until I graduate and start my grad job in may, earn some bigger bucks... Bigger bucks means bigger boost :)
