I would get 350-380 miles on a full tank on my Type-S, that's on a full motorway journeys and very little VTEC action

I got 380km out of half a tank on my Isuzu when I picked up my trailer, so half that distance was done towing. I'm fairly pleased with that, for a 3.1 litre auto

I won't get much out the second half though as it's all going to be local driving

I normally get about 250 miles from a tank.

Since supercharging i have not bettered 300miles to the tank. Before i would get 350-380.

Sounds too good to not hit boost and use up the fuel.

Have you actually had that thing properly tuned yet so it's fully driveable Ratty?

It's propperly drivable but not propperly yet. Still not had time to install the water/meth so it will get tunned once done.

I had a moment of whichcraft aswell the day i bought my old black lude...

filled it up at the petrol station in plymouth and got all the way to my house..529miles away

had to keep stopping at pretty much very service station for my mate as his thermostat packed in and he was over heating every 10 miles too..

I mind everyone telling me it was impossible

best part is... it was before the petrol prices when sky high so got a full tank for 60 quid
