38mpg
and the little fcukers are still pretty quick!
Im guessing they use some form of variable valve timing???


my GT4 should be over 300bhp...

most standard JDM cars are dyno'ed at 260bhp+

and yea... petrol consumption is

my corsa did 170 to a tank this one time that was the last tank before it died

the nova did about 250 cos it was a carbed engine, and it was crap

this gaymobile does about 400 to a tank.

The gear box is really long, in 5th at 80mph its, doing ~3,500 rpm! So its ideal for motorway cruising. Most of my weekly miles are on the M27, so long as I avoid traffic and pressing the loud pedal all the way down I can average about 35mpg Engine mods are Apexi ind. kit and decats only.
