One thing to try Dan. I always put in Millers Sports, 2 cupfulls to a tank of derv.

They reckon it boosts cetain ratings and gives you more power. Any motor place should sell it, or here.

Get a panel filter as well.

Don't get me wrong fellas - I seriously love this car. It's not the same as a 180. I maybe just need to get used to it.

I will have a wee look to see if there is anything not right with it. First step will be to go to TCS and get it RRd to see what it's putting out. Then if it's low, or strangled somehow, I'll start looking into it.

I'm fairly sure that I'll end up doing something to boost performance a bit, but it ain't gonna be by throwing loads of cash at it.

I must've done 250 miles today on just under half a tank by the way ....
