ks per tank of gas

[Shale]

JEEPERS. Either slow or thorough, either way since it didn't pop they must have done a good job Your car is a mystery. I think it has the club fascinated...

lol. well it cost me a arm and a leg but i told them to go for it ;D

The Spec C had a 50L tank. Filled to the brim, i would get 600km out of a tank with highway (open road) driving. Thats a mild 100-120kph (maybe the odd burst to 160ish on desert road), overtaking anything slower than 100kph, rapidly.

BP98 only.

This was achieved about 6 or 7 times in regular trips from Auckland to Palmy-Levin and back...

By comparisson, my Safari weighs 1100kg more, is 4.2L diesel auto and will do 600km's on a tank (95L) highway. Thank god diesel is around 70c a litre cheaper than 98!

[gtb36]

well i full up on 98 and did 430km's to the tank :-[ well tha sucked and cost me !!! back to good old 91 now ;D

wouldn't recommend using 91 in a Subaru, try either V-power of 95 first before deciding on going to 91

[gazzy2000]

Just completed a trip over 1000Km, does 9 Litres per 100KM in my BH5 with G1 Possumlink

[Guest boostin]

That's about normal for a manual BH. I can get 10L/100km in my dirty old BF with a chipped ECU!!

[Drunkenmonkey]

Yes well after all the BS i had with boosting issues i deserve to get something right!

The wife loves it too! and she is 31 weeks pregnant, in 25 degrees+ in summer and we have a 1 year old, so she must be pleased!! LOL

just got home (dunedin) coming from chch and according to the car odometer i did 366ks with just over half tank, which means i used less than 9L per 100ks (about 8.7L/100ks)

also i wasnt driving like a nana, was going about 100-110ks/h (110-120 goin up hills) and the odd boosts to over take anyone going less than 105ks.

stock ECU, running on bp 98

Hiway driving towing jetski, 3 passengers and a boot FULL of gears 440kms before the E light came on solid, that was with a few steep climbs and over taking on our way to Whangamata and back plus a bit of crusing around the beaches etc in Whangamata.

Car, estimate 50 litres (1 full tank) = 440kms

Jetski, estimate 180 litres (3 full tanks) = 10 hours LMAO

So with say an aftermarket ECU, one will more than likely get better fuel economy?

oh if I had the cash :

[Shale]

Depends on the ECU and the tune. With aftermarket ECUs you have to do it all from scratch, so you could slow the engine down a bit and scrimp&save with your economy...or make it dump fuel in the everything and get eleventy hundred kiloholysh!ts at the wheels, but go 200km on a tank.

[subieboy]

my 2cents

We drove from Whangarei to Takaka and back (I highly recommend Takaka for a holiday BTW).

Car: BH5 GTB - modified

We spent about $400 on petrol for the round trip (95 mostly but 98 where we could get it), she was fully loaded with stuff for 3 weeks holiday.

We did not drive the car too hard, did boost alot, ok a heck of a lot (Max boost: in primary to about 10.7Psi and Secondary 15.9Psi). The big point tho is we drove to the speed limit, so if 100Km/h section, we did 100Km/h max (average was about 95ishkm/h), 80Km/h section we did 80 max and so on...

We did on average about 750Km per tank. Kept the receipts too.
