Therusterman 59 Posted December 5, 2014 Report Share Posted December 5, 2014 Yeah sounds about right, getting around 270 miles with mixed driving Link to post Share on other sites
vr6guy 29 Posted December 5, 2014 Report Share Posted December 5, 2014 I get 180-210 on a full tank so yes I would say that's good Link to post Share on other sites

vr6guy 29 Posted December 5, 2014 Report Share Posted December 5, 2014 From your mileage I'm sure that would be in the mid 30's to gallonMy old vr turbo done 33mpg on motorwayRound town I'm sure you'll notice a difference Link to post Share on other sites

Mk3highline 287 Posted December 8, 2014 Report Share Posted December 8, 2014 I managed some over 400 miles a full tankMotorway and country roads with some local 24v on the vr6ecu so once mapped should be ok Link to post Share on other sites
vr6guy 29 Posted December 8, 2014 Report Share Posted December 8, 2014 400 miles?! Was you being towed some of that ? Link to post Share on other sites
Bealieboy 1,625 Posted December 8, 2014 Report Share Posted December 8, 2014 I reckon on a steady run I could get up to 350 miles. Mines pretty good on juice by all accounts. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to post Share on other sites
Mk3highline 287 Posted December 10, 2014 Report Share Posted December 10, 2014 I was surprised too with that too and tyre pressures are bit low too It's the 24v it's so much more efficient Bealieboy 1 Link to post Share on other sites
vr6guy 29 Posted December 10, 2014 Report Share Posted December 10, 2014 Ah ok. Mines 12vI may do a long run to see how mine does... Maybe to stealth and back? Link to post Share on other sites
Mk3highline 287 Posted December 11, 2014 Report Share Posted December 11, 2014 (edited) My 12v did 430 with some left in reserve That's with 230 motorway miles was steady though most of the wayI can only do about 5min of steady with the 24v lolBesides the obvious of servicing/ maintaince I used chevron techron couple weeks before an oil change And spraying water in the inlet then spraying pure meth too I got a water/meth injection kit so it's easySounds like a lot of work but it steam cleans the combustion chamber and the meth gets rid of the oil deposits in the inletI'm at stealth tomorrow at bloody 9am!!
