ecotek valves are meant to reduce MPG - nto sure how good they are - u'd have to talk to soem1 with experience with them - but for the valve and silencer its about £60-70 | |

check for blows in your exhaust, i know it sounds stupid, but they can really drain ya MPG! induction kits also cost MPG :( | |

Best advice is to look ahead at the road, if the lights are red come off the gas - you dont use anything, and if you dont stop thats even less wasted fuel. I usually stick to this cos it saves brake pads and fuel and time in one go. :thumbs: | |

i can easily get over 100 miles to a tenner, usually costs me about 26 to fill up and i norm get about 330 miles from that so think it works out at like 44 miles to gallon or somethin like that at todays petrol prices! LOL | |

5th gear is always used, if you've ever driven in Milton Keynes you'll understand the need for 5th gear. | |
