Could I ask, you have a fillup of 12.18 US gallons which is 46.11 litres, but the official tank size of the Aygo is 35 litres.

Is this a split tank ?

The plan was to only fill with 5 liters at the time to save weight but then I got the UltraGauge. To be able to calibrate I had to fill up to full. It's all in detail at sprimonitor dot de.

Agreed. I think that the higher the EPA figure (in L/100k) the bigger the percentage it can be beaten by. But a car with a low EPA figure to start with isn't going to be beaten by a whole lot.
Well, from my experience anyway, for what it's worth!
For example, my EPA is something like 3.5L/100k. If i beat it by 50% i would be getting something like 1.75L/100k, clearly crazy figures! Now, i can do about 2L/100k on the straight and level but that doesn't count for much.

Still, i'm using very little fuel overall so i can't complain!

Another interesting fact is that you can beat the EPA by way over 100% if measured in mpg but in l/100km it will be difficult. This is the first time ever I preferred non metric.

I'm not getting the match between SM and the EM log, but I'm sure it works out.

What are you going to use the LEDs for, and did you notice much difference with the Iridium plugs ? I've seen those recommended by the Aygo club here in the UK.

I didn't bother to make the calculations myself but according to google 4,01 l/100km translates to 58,7mpg. I have double checked the figures so it should be correct. I haven't yet done the calibration so the actual figures are better.

I tried to post about the LED:s but it doesn't show. The parking lights in front are 28 LED-"bulbs" so I won't have to use the H4:s during daylight. I also put LED:s in rear/brake lights.
Since I did so many modifications at the same time it's not possible to say anything about the iridium sparks. I just decided to do samething radical about the milage so I did everything.

Look forward to seeing the lights - I'm saving for a set of Ring Lyra DRLs as its a complete kit including integration with sidelights and headlights. Also pics of any other mods too.

Well done with the mileage, you're a good 15% ahead of me

Thanks.
Home from work today I got 3,30l/100km=71.3mpg! I just hope the UltraGauge is accurate. I'll start a new thread for the mods.
