Tailwind. :D I am down near Berrima and its been blowing all day.
I usually get between 12-15 litres per 100kms with 35s and a turbo.

I wish I was getting those sort of figures

Hmm, sounds normal/good for stock, I used to get anything from 650-700 k's (flat highway only, hills suck the juice) from memory before I went with mods, I'd hate to think what I would get now it just drinks it.

Have yet to do that well, so far and only ever from the same pump and nossle I have had between 11.1L/100k and 13.5L/100k. Before I turned the fuel down it was around 18L/100km. As an average 60% of my driving has been around town.

cheers fnq

I can get that on the Adelaide run as well
31" ATs (I pump up to about 44 pound for a highway run)
no turbo
light load
took off the roof rack as well (adds about 2 L/100 ks)
No pre filter as well
