When I have used mine for the daily commute it is a mixture of fast A and B roads over 35 miles and if used for a week I can average 320 to a tank, less if I 'play'. That's with exhaust, induction and remap. If driven sensibly I can squeeze over 350 to a tank.

I managed over 400 once, no idea how but I did that on holiday one year. That is impressive.

Is that 370+ down to the weight saving or is that with a full interior? Please say it's down to flywheel so I can jsutify the upgrade as another "efficiency mod"

haha not got a flywheel on this one sorry. Its sort of lightened as in no back seats, but other than that pretty standard but got decat janspeed full exhaust, LSD, it has had lightweight wheels on but not at the moment. i have got one of those magnet things on not sure if that does something and i always run on shell optimax stuff.

Lucky if I get just over 300 in mine, mixed driving but mostly round town.
Been tempted to try those magnet things but never sure about believing the adds or not as dont know of anyone that actually does use them.. Until now that is
