this gives me around 10.8l/100kms around sydney including stop start in peak hour traffic.
I did a trip up to the barrington tops over xmas and with the roof rack loaded and towing the trailer loaded with camping gear i wound the boost up a bit and averaged 12.7l/100kms for the trip.
if you want better fuel figures:
1) drive it a bit nicer
2) lower your boost (but the less boost the higher egt's go so you need to find a good balance)
You guys are all talking about adjustable boost - enlighten me. What do I have to do and how much would it cost?
Dalton, iv got a 02 3L and I average out about 11.3L per 100km's doing a mix of town/highway and a little beach. It's stock standard and am super happy with it. Take it easy
the dawes and needle valve mod. takes boost control away from the ecu and you can control how fast the turbo spools up and what the max boost pressure is reached.Quote:

My 2006 GU does around 13/100 in general town driving. Best ever unloaded on highway is 10--11/100. Tow camper trailer and push a bit, it is 15/100.
BTW if you plan sand and stuff, plan for 20 to be safe, but probably you will only use 15
Hope this helps.
My car is standard apart from... dual batteriesQuote:

Thats it. I treat mine with a lot of care though. Gotta Love It.
I have a standard 2009 GU 3.0 L, and get about 11L / 100km. It seems to be about the same around town and on the highway, I'm guessing because it is not very aerodynamic.
