boost_ute Donating Members 94 Member For: 16y 11m 23d Location: Adelaide Posted 03/08/08 12:27 AM Share Posted 03/08/08 12:27 AM I am going to tune my FG in the next few weeks. I am seriously considering tuning it on E10. I have heard of cars getting more power out of this fuel sometimes. Has anybody had their T tuned on E10 94/95 or E10 98 and if so what were the results in regards to power, fuel consumption etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do however find that when I use say a shell or a Caltex 95 it will ping occasionaly. On 98 I can really feel the difference.The best I have averaged is 9.4l to 100ks on a trip and that was using United fuel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
