400 klicks? Your joking right. I'm getting between 350 to 380 whilst towing (in country), don't know about city driving yet but not looking forward to towing or driving for that matter with all the traffic lights with the V8 LOL.
P.S. 350 was with 91 fuel and 380 with 95

I did notice i got much better economy on 98, i thought 400km per tank was horrible, i normally get 400-450ish on the rd or 200-300ish off road.

E10 or 98, mine pings a bit on 91 or 95 when I flog it. But I have a full exhaust and a unichip q4, they may have givin it a bunch more timing in open loop.
I get about 450kms per tank, 550 on the highway with 98 and a little less on both with e10.

So E10 is all right? I didn't think it was good for this motor?
