    Default 1.8 vectra poor MPG (Help)

    hi there my 1.8 Vectra (14k miles) is only doing 21 to the Gallon round town. Not Been Thrashed driven at 30 miles an hour. Filled up on V Power Sheell & done 68 Miles Refilled cost me £16.20. £1.08 litre = £4.75 Gallon 23.5 pence a mile.
    Had a Twin Vxr Style Dual exhaust fitted a few weeks a go would this have anything to do with MPG ?
    Do you get more BHP with a twin Vxr bak box fitted from the Cat Back?
    Any advice Thanks Andy

    thats poor, I get 30-40 depending on usage. Is the airfilter clean? I have a K and N cone type airfilter and dual exhaust as well but I think I have a different 1.8 engine as mine is 2002/3 model 120bhp.
