DaveO Member 250 Member For: 22y 11m 28d Location: City Posted 08/01/07 05:48 AM Posted 08/01/07 05:48 AM Exactly (the fuel bill) what if it was a real tight ass driving the commy and they only put 91RON in it. Severely hampers performance! They go down to 250kw and 500nm from the 270kw and 530nm quoted on 98PULP.

My LS1 got 8-9l/100 km touring and 12-17l/100 km in the city and that's with big cam and the L98 is better, but the weight gain have hurt. The R8 did very well recently averaging overall 12.xl/100 km, not bad for a 1840kg of lard.

Funny thing I still beat him over the first 60' even though he stalled it up a fair bit.

Mind you she didnt launch it and granny shifted. With a bit of work these things have some mid range power mines seamed to have alittle more top end grunt
