:shocked: cant be bad, about 200bhp isnt it?

Yeah, haven't rolling roaded it yet but other remapped PD 150s average around 200bhp/300lbs...so I'd guess mine is around the same.  If only it didn't sound like a tractor.

I think thats pretty good mate getting that amount of miles out of a tank, I'll have to see what I can get out of mine. How far did you let the needle go down and how much did you get in it when you filled her back up ?

Mine has just done 320 miles on around 40 litres, which is almost a full tank! Thats around 36mpg, so happy enough. Thats mostly long journeys though, one 200 mile journey, so could be better. I tend to get a little under 30mpg on short trips  :cry:

i know it costs me 58quid to fill it. about 300 miles to a tank. ISH if i stay off the go pedal long enough.

Oh and martin i don't think they will, something to do with the spline and size.
