    Not sure of the mpg on mine, but I have seen 400 miles on a tank when going on holiday and travelling at a steady 70 - standard ST bar Mongoose and a k&n. I brim it until the fuel can be seen in the filler neck.

    We go to Lands End every 2 years, I often take and it is 300 miles exactly from door to door, and I normally use 2/3 tank to get there.

    I had 330 miles to my last tank, and that was mainly A and B roads.

      Don't mention that to too many people, you might get marked down for it at your next concourse event!!!

              I got to Ford Fair from Newcastle and only used half a tank, 80-90 the whole way there on a T4 so wasn't really on boost

                U used to get around 25/27mpg IIRC on my std small turbo's, driving steady.

                Got between 8 - 18 mpg on the 500bhp one, depending on the boost setting

                  Driving steady to you is minding the gradient on the driveway whilst reversing in and out of your garage

                              This sounds like something from a rover or a caravan towing website lmao if your worried about getting 100's of miles out of a tank your driving it wrong, these are 80's road going rally cars
