App... Dont use an App.
Do it the propper way of filling up a full tank, resetting the trip compluter and draining it via driving sexilly and then another full tank.
I got 20mpg with constant VTEC pretty much all the way and another of Autobahn driving.
32 normal without trying.

Hey all,
I am off on holiday this week and have a few jobs planned for the S
More will be revealed next week
But for starters, i needed to see to the trim around the window surrounds.
I followed the guide by @Pushki: http://www.ludegeneration.co.uk/honda-p ... t5141.html
Before:

Can you tell which side i did?

Did all the window surrounds and the roof strips and am delighted with the results

Managed to get a few jobs done for the first Scottish meet of the year. So some of my mods were exclusively revealed there
and another few things done since
First, a great pic taken by @Merlin at the meet:

Interior:
EP3 steering wheel fitted. Really pleased with the improvement

Seats re-vitalised by some Gliptone cleaner and conditioner:

Fixed the gaitor so it wasn't clacking around off the shift extender:

Finished off with a Mugen style shifter with Honda detailing:

Exterior:
Gave the car a nice clay, wax etc and took some pics to show off the exterior work
Smaller 12"x6" number plate fitted for less drag/more air to the radiator
( was 13"x7" )

Shiny

Rear OEM lights fitted to replace tatty Lexus style jobbies. Tinted out the white part to retain my black theme
Replaced rear number plate which had rusting screws and just taped in with double sided tape:

And finally, cleaned out my cone filter with a K&N recharger kit and got my Powerflow decat pipe fitted to unleash a bit extra go to go with the show
Happy that the noise in every day driving hasn't noticeably changed but sounds superb in VTEC
Thanks for looking
