it makes me wonder how often you do experiments and come to the conclusion of "I have nothing to worry about."

492km in a tank is impressive i was starting to think my car has something wrong with it then i remembered i drive fairly hard lots of up shifts around 7krpm and i get 450km a tank just imagine if i was to drive nicely.

Never made a difference when I tried driving like a nice guy. Same or worst mileage.
8's like to be driven hard!

If Footy wants to drive like a granny let him, but it's not for me. I'll bet footy if you started driving that old corolla that you may get 700-800 km to a tank!

ahahaha Nate, I'm a habitual worrier of the slightest things that are imperfect. So for me, to qualm my own worries and fears, I have to seek quantifiable evidence that everything is okay... and I am good at that.... unlike the BHR team..... woops did I just say that? LOL LOL LOL!!!!! It's okay BHR, I'm sure your coils are an amazing product...
