Getting my rear bumper resprayed then might spring for a RonBox as everyone has praises for them on this type of pump motor.
Performance gains sound impressive, and a lot of people commenting they feel better to drive too, but what about economy? I reckon people are reporting dropped MPG's just because they are booting it a lot more often! |

To be honest it MIGHT give you better mpg but if you want more power you have to sacrifice something. I cant say mine got better but it certaintly did not get worse. I would be happy losing 5 mpg for the extra drivability. But then again mine has a lot more done now and I can't really remember what it was like to start with.

Fair enough!
Likewise, its already more than good enough on fuel, good enough that on long trips down south I don't have to worry about speed to keep the trip on budget, and when out around the hills want a bit more out of it. |
