vr6madforit 0 Posted October 7, 2005 Report Share Posted October 7, 2005 i got a stage 2 s/c fitted and on the motorway get 28-29mpg on 80mph average. Thats around 345 miles with a full tank. Obviously much less around the town, between 12-17mpg.Hope this helps! Link to post Share on other sites

petervr6 0 Posted October 8, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 8, 2005 i have noticed to night that 2 of my ht leads are sparking through the lead on tonthe head (though it was missing a bit) would this make a differance to the fuel coz round town my trip reads 20-21mpg max Link to post Share on other sites

Nerih 0 Posted October 8, 2005 Report Share Posted October 8, 2005 yes, you will be requiring more throttle becuase you wont be getting very good burns in your cylinder if half the spark current is ground out prior to the spark terminal. expect 18-30mpg depending on how you rag it.my stage 2 s/c gives me 14mpg when ragging it and 28mpg on the motorway, its pretty decent. only difference is it costs mroe becuase you have to put in super unleaded (97/98 ron) Link to post Share on other sites
petervr6 0 Posted October 9, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2005 dam 14 mpg you needd your own petrol station for that but i bet its worth it. Link to post Share on other sites
