15 liter test tank. (only highway)
weather +26,5 celsius and sunny so little bit better than previous tank.
Loosened the rear brakes and bearings. righ rear brake slide pin was totally stuck, that is the reason why the left rear tire had worn 1mm more what I wondered before.
avg speed 92 km/h

During the test took out few parts as in the beginning the car consumed half a liter too much. That was then 80 km driven.

10 liter fuel consumption test tank. Filled again when the needle was at certain point like in previous tanks, but now the mark is lower as in previous tank I drove the tank closer to empty. (still 25 liters left so will try to drive it more empty for next test tank)
avg speed 92 km/h Had to turn 4 times which lower the avg speed.
- on board computer 3.8 l/100km, actual 3,1 so error 18,5%
Weather +25 celsius but cloudy so road temperature did not get so hot.
- Installed front tire splitters

Had 50 km of traffic light driving in the beginning of the tank. Cam timing is now adjusted from -2.2 degrees to 0 degrees. That seemend to help quite much specially to low end torque.

Rest of the tank tried to drive 100 km/h avg speed as much as possible.

AVG temperature +22 celsius.

Lot of black smoke is coming on bigger uphills so the ecu tuning is still way off before its fixed to this turbo and car. One driver opened his window on highway and warned that is my engine OK due to that smoke.

Cam timing was 2.2 degrees off in this first tank. and 100 km of this high speed driving 125 km/h and 100km of 145 km/h. And lots of un necessary accelerations braking to show friends how this car goes.

Fuel consumption is measured that I fill 25 liters and wait when the fuel needle is at the same point and then refill.
