You bet goes twice as nice and no smoke the big test will be when I go up the gateway . Well I will see how long it will take to get my money back in fuel saving. I was getting 17l per 100 kays around town or pulling the van to Noosa. It was a little better going to Landcruiser Park about 15l per 100 kays. It ended up costing $1090 first time in 6years that I was spent any money on it .
