At the moment i am testing a new driving style. Extreme high engine loads when warmd up on the highway. Getting max boost (1.7 bar overboost) and load the engine up to around 55 %. That would be around 100 hp. That is around 70 % load from original engine specifspecifications (except the 0,2 bar extra boost off stock).

Trip meter is at 570km. Needle of tank is on the 5/8 of a tank. Normally the trip is around 540km. So it around 5% increase. So a good 0,3 l/100km gain. Normally tank average is 6,2l/100km - 5% = 5,9l/100km. I keep you updated when i fill up the tank.
