bhp/l

Your truck has better economy than my old XJ12 Jag. : )

I get ~23mpg from my 4.6l ALPINA and I'm not a big fan of part throttle or short shifting... 8)

In news:1rfWf.38015$ snipped-for-privacy@newsfe2-win.ntli.net, DervMan wrote something quite bizarre, possibly in an effort to confuddle the world. It went like so;

Not when you realise they're better than my 911.

LOL, that's bad.

93.88 bhp/L

26.30 mpg average over last 7886 miles. (can get 35mpg on 400mile full tank runs at steady 70mph on M-way - following a 1.3 Escort ZZZZzzzzzz)

Pie in the sky time, one day the exhaust will do the decent thing and fall off to make me do it. Been waiting for my stock exhaust to fall off for 6 years now, it's lost both mid and rear box heat shields + 2 mounts and gained a jubilee clip but it keeps passing MOT. This being a mods group it's high time I stuck a Blue Flame exhaust, inlet kit, fmic, fuel pump, T28, boost control valve at 1bar, plugs and stage 2 chip on it and took it to 230bhp @ 6800 / 230ft-lb @ 5000 (looking at others dyno graphs).

Then it would be 127 bhp/L and 127 ft-lb/L. and will give better mpg by all accounts.

but the good ones make much more

are you going to share?

So why do I drive the Merc everywhere?

Pah output per litre isn't all that relevant. Output per mass is more useful! :)

Everything... everything flagged as 2006 at least.

Ya. Oh yes. I had to reformat chunks of it to fit everything in. Now up to 3,200 vehicles... with even more data... but it's not yet finished.

It does, if they are flagged to 2006.

Aren't they both?

The Mini has less power and torque.

I see high 30s with short shifting, low 30s without. :)

No, they're both NA aren't they? With the faster one having more ports or something?

Pah weany little turbocharger if it is, then!

Richard KP explained the difference not long ago. He has the slower one, and explained some technical stuff about ports and stuff.

On a decent run, if I'm not driving like a c*ck, I see the old man side of
