    I've got a blue saxo furio just like yourself,

    and it's all honestly down to the way you drive. If I rag it, I notice a big drop in fuel lol.

    I usually average around 38 MPG

    Or you can De-cat it , for extra crap fuel consumption, though i think the lower mpg is down to using the loud pedal more just for the noise tbh

    Lol true. The trouble with exhausts & decats is the noise, you like it so you play with the noise pedal alot which used more fuel

    Worth it imo though lol

    1 of mine has a 4-2-1 and de-cat Its not good, noise pedal is amazing but you could drill a hole in the fuel tank and it wouldnt go down as fast lol

    I bet you'l buy an induction kit and like the sound and then progress onto a backbox, then a system, trust me you'l want more noise , lol true sam, i took my car down the pod and only did 10 runs and used qaurter of a tank or more, i actually felt guilty for thrashing my car so bad though
