i just got back from a 780km'ish trip with about 300kg of stuff in the back (mx bike, camping gear, etc)

i was cruising at fast to fast through the straights and corners and hit around FAST a few times on long downhills. at times i was doing 100 in 3rd on steep hills or long increasing gradients and over taking at fast on increasing gradients.

full tank of 75L and have around 1/4 left according to the gauge

GOOD STUFF

Default New figures after gas conversion

I can finally post some figures after a couple of months using the DGas and a 2 3/4' exhaust fitted at the beginning of February. I was goint to post my spreadsheet but suddenly .xls is not an acceptable attachment so, no Excel document.

Two tanks of diesel totalling 100.26L and one of gas 28.47L for a total fuel usage of 128.73L was used to cover 1,123.9Km which works out at 11.45L/100Km. This is very close to what the Nav was doing just on diesel prior to the upgrade so I am saving about $11-12 per gas tank full but the Nav goes like a cut snake now and pulls my van with no problems at all.

Most of my driving is local , but when I hit the highway I usually have my van on the back so I am very happy with the figures but it will take about 5 years to get my investment back
