Only thing I dont get is how some of you get 420km+ outta one full tank. Full tank for me is roughly about 90+ bucks before discount and it will last me around 350km only. Not that I mind the fc too much but it would be nice to be able to squeeze a little more out of a full tank.
Hi and welcome to the forum... wah.. virgin post. My key to better FC is occasional carbon clearing high revs and smooth driving (don't do red light dashes).

Refer to my previous post:
Ha ha!! U r really funny, sq. Thanks for the tip! Thanks CoupeM for the tip too. That being case, i will go with 98. But will Caltex, with a similarly priced oil type, give better performance?

And sq, no worries lah. Its good to ease the tension ard here. All bros, why get worked up? But anyone contacting jack neo to join our forum? he may get some inspiration.....

Yeah thanks :D

And yup I gotta get my butt into JB and hit the highways at some point soon - work is just too busy at the mo tho.

I seldom do traffic light dashes unless some kid pisses me off enough.

Same here, my FC is around what you are getting too. It can reach 420km but only if I travel on the highway.
