vpower has dropped by 5p this week tho so it's all good

5p eh, thats around 22p per gallon, still not enough

but it helps, supose thats around £3 saving on a full tank

shame tesco doesnt do it, then you could get the extra 5p off when you spend in tesco

but if your not doing motorways then auto v manual is the same

The kind of roads we have around here, the manual will be better. It has better urban figures than the auto

I do like the tesco 5p per litre deal, if only they had a deal with shell and sold v-power

so you should keep it and do a turbo build project

Haha how much power do you get from a turbo f22b... It would have to be rapid to be worth a change from the h22.. I'm too scared about blowing up my engine evertime I vtec let alone turboing around.

with a h22 you can get 350-400 without going totally nuts on it, that would requrie low comp pistons pistons and some other bits and bobs (not my knowledge, this is from PAW). With the f22 as you have a iron sleeves you can probably get crazy numbers like 500+ bhp

(that isn't PAW knowledge just a guess)

You are aware that the 2.2 non-VTEC 5G uses 4x114.3 wheels like the 4G yeah? Ie they wont fit your 5 stud VTi.
