I have been driving it off boost mostly,short shifting and using highers gears. I managed 516km on one tank of E5 filled to the first cut off level. :clap3:

Bad news is it cost me 87euro to fill it back up. Another record i didn't want to break. :eek:hhpoopoo:

What's your hyper mile record? :anyone:

i can get about 470-490km out of mine staying off the boost as much as i can, but thats only really possible if you are doing long trips.
 
dont understand "staying off boost" :ponder2: , sure thats like eating your cornflakes with no spoon . :hammerhead:


ahh , often wanted to try and see the maximum i could get from a tank . but always end up squeezing the loud pedal :turbo: and sure one you do it once , game over
 
Some going to get that, I'd be like mac mac, often tried but never succeeded, I couldn't even go down to the shops without giving it a blast :changinggear:

I didnt buy it to save petrol ! If I want to do that I take the diesel mondeo. If I want fun I take the scooby :) :turbo: :turbo: :turbo:

I really only tried it for the crack. It wasn't as tedious as you imagine. I was keeping up with traffic and still passing most of it. I normally get 450km with normal driving and 200km on track :changinggear:
 
have noticed mine is actually not as hard on juice since remapping , about 650kms over last weekend , cost about 120 euro i think , was not an economy drive by any means, thats just shy of 24 mpg on motorway and country roads with a bit of city driving , far from the 55mpg achieved by my mothers car on the same journey in her merc
 
boring driving i get about 550 to a tank.... its a wrx sized tank.....
spirited or towing i get about 370-400 km to the tank
