You thinking of changing up instead of remapping? By the way, did you get your HIDs fitted?

People have seen 35mpg on cruising runs, but if it's anythign like my V6 diesel as soon as you boot it it drops like a stone...

i'm really not sure what to do to be honest. My grand mother sadly passed away at the beginning of feb and left me quite a large some of money but it wont be available till prob august so i'm just throwing about a few ideas. I would ideally like a facelift siggy turbo but they.re like hens teeth with a good spec and a colour i like. Obviously i'd love a 2.8t but i do over 200 miles a week and its mainly urban driving so dont know if i can seriously run one without bankrupting myself. I was thinking bout the hids today. I never got round to ordering a set unfortunately money was tight after chrimbo and had to use hids money to fund my little girls swwimming lessons. hope she appriates it when she gets older. Lol.

Mine has seen 26.9 in 14,000 miles average but I drive it quite hard on A and B roads. I can get 33+mpg easy if I'm kind to it...

HTH

thanks O M J, perhaps the siggy may be a little better as its not so highly tuned as the vxr?

...and left me quite a large some of money...

You're my new best friend.

How to make friends and influence people. Lol. Dont worry i'm sure it wont last long with my mrs she's allready spent it 3 times over and we.ve not even got it yet! But i promised myself i'.d either sort mine out or get a new one. Just trying to work out what to do.

That's an easy question to answer - Maptun Stage 7, and a 5-seat conversion. lol
