Get about 400km a tank from the RS. Runs a bit rich on the Link ecu though.

Usually I manage to get a good 400 to 430kms out of a 92 RS Turbo with link ecu, zorst, built motor, CAI, BOV, walbro fuel pump and 473cc injectors etc etc... usually thats when fuel light comes on at about 47-48 litres used... (50 litre liberty tank) not bad for a car that can run a 12.6 quarter... and the tune isn't lean as or anything either... before it was retuned properly though it was runnin rich as and i could only get about 320-350 out of a tank max...

ur prolly losing fuel to the fact that you have a BOV on std ecu, your car will be overfueling every time the BOV goes off because there isn't any air being plumbed back to the air flow meter dude, i remember my mates MY99 losing about 50kms a tank because of his BOV, and when he went back to stock it went back to normal getting heaps more k's... BTW if its a 99 i think it has a 60 litre tank in it??? someone correct me if i'm wrong...

I've got a MY'01 Bugeye and I usually get between 400-440km per tank. No Tweaks. Using BP ultimate. Normal Unleaded about 380-400 I would say.

89 Legacy GT Wagon
350 k's per tank.
Tank is about 45L

Hey Rob, I thought RS's had a 60L tank? I've chucked in 55L before and fuel light hadn't come on yet.

ah cool~ could be, but i had the BOV for 3 - 4 years, only till recently i have this fueling problem. would adjusting the BOV helps it in anyway? i've got a trust type S adjustable BOV.
