My new Turbo seems to be bedding in just nicely, went from Manchester Airport to Lpool Airport today and the my just kept on rising and rising..... managed to get to 72 mpg and I was doing 75 ish all the way.

A pleasant suprise it wasnt doing that before my new turbo for sure.

Is it worth paying the extra for BP Ultimaut or Shell Vpower anyone ????

    Best I have had is 57mpg and that's all long runs and driving very sedately, actual MPG not what the on board computer says.

    Bet that 72mpg doesn't last the whole tank though lol...

    I haven't found any fuel brand to increase MPG so far myself.
