You give us the ammo... we'll keep shooting
Dolphins are so smart that within a few weeks of captivity, they can train people to stand on the very edge of the pool and throw them fish.
Guys, further compilation of fuel use on a 300k trio, used 48 liters. 200k of that was at 100km/hr freeway and the remainder a mix of windy gear swapping roads and perhaps 5k of 4wd'ing. So average consumption works out at 6.25kilometer/litre, or 16l/100klm.
Vehicle sits at 100klm/hr and 2000rpm and hovers around 15.5 l/100klm. I am happy with this as currently sitting at 3600kgs vehicle weight and aerodynamics of a barn. This is a heap improvement on the 2.8TD I had in before the engine swap, it would deliver numbers around the 28-30/100klm.
EGT's sit around the 250-ish mark cruising along

Good info that.
Just curious , where is your EGT probe positioned?, near the head, or further away?
I have a probe installed on each header, or actually as close to the header as I could get it which is say 100mm downstream of the 'factory' header, where it joins the exhaust pipe. Any closer and it would have been a nightmare to get in. I use SAAS gauges and had the thermocouples tested by an instrument tech in his 'hot box' and confirmed the readings are correct for what is displayed. There are two probes and 2 gauges for total clarity. Response is very quick and more than adequate for what I wanted, which was actively managing the EGT's via driving style.
Kindly received some pics today from http://www.blitsbodykits.com.au/ for the GU Supercharger bonnets if anyone needs raised @rainsey Cheers mate!
I believe this one below is for GU4 and onwards:I believe this one below is for earlier:

Whoops forgot, they are ADR approved apparently with test certificates and each has its own specific registration number for your engineers needs was told.

I am considering swapping over to the Evans Waterless Coolant. I rang BD yesterday to find out the system volume and the number is 18 litres. Almost fell over. So the 20l of flush will be $379 and then 20L of coolant another $379

And another 20L for $379 to carry as spare for when we accidentally stab a bottom end hose up in the hills mate :-)
