Dont fret Beany... reality is however you drive your economy wont be worse than pre-map but your performance is better, thats what pisses the petrolheads off IMO
Yeah pre map i was getting 49mpg now im getting 54mpg (real actual figuers!!)

Hang on if you perform the same tuning on petrol engines you get the same effect. More performance when booting it and more economy when being 'economical'.
My average has gone up from 39-40mpg combined to 44.4ish.
Yes Chris but the boundary lines are wider for Diesel as its a more economical burn anyhow. My average has improved by 6 mpg town driving and 10 mpg on M/way @ steady 70 (Bradford to Telford) light traffic.
I wonder what the price difference in petrol and diesel makes to the difference in mpg between petrol and diesel? You guys hear we are in for another price hike!!
I hear the opposite... Price for Crude has dropped <$150 a barrel now so its going down. £1.04 for unleaded in my local shell down from 108.9 yesterday. Only reason for increase would be the £-$ exchange rate devalueing.
Your kiding right??? did you not see the news this morning! crude has hit an all time record high!
Then why's prices falling? must have been an overnight occurance!.

Edit: Nothing on BBC news got a link?.
Yeah it was, prices have been going down but overnight oil has hit a record high, watch the news or just wait a few days and see at the pump.
i thihnk i heard $175+ a barrel somewhere
It is overnight, 16$ a barrel increase, the biggest ever single price rise... Speculation again, speculation that the USA injecting billions of dollars into their economy will increase demand on crude reserves.... FFS....
Bring on he electric GP
OMG Electrics.... what the Italians simply excell at.... NOT!
I'm more than confident it would mince an abarth on the straights, but on a B road (where it matters) I think the abarth would be showing its true colours.
peak torque 230nm.
Thats a hell of a lot in a petrol car!!
Dude trust me this engine 'on sports boost mode' could pull teeth! :devil: :slayer:. It pull very hard from 2500rpmish all the way to redline (thus giving it an advantage over diesel) even if it is down on torque.
And you can redline it without the turbo blowing up
Whats the BHP ?
155 but thats irrelevant.
I might actually believe you on this one, if what you say about 5/6 full and change when the light is on is correct thenI think from reading earlier threads you take a few mpg of the computers mpg to get real world mpg. and if its been remapped take a couple more off. would mean im getting 54ish mpg on the motorway.
