The 400 is sooo much more fuel efficient with the newer supercharger :lol:

6.8mpg at Spa.

FYI the NA Evora does about 9mpg on track. In the SC VX I guess I was getting a bit more than Steve, only because he was going too fast. Thanks to everyone for helping with my misfire issue; particularly Steve for swapping coil packs, Joe for gapping the plugs ( :lol:

), Sutol for the advice, Martin for the (wrong) plugs and Wrightstuff for the obd help. Proper team effort...love you guys, but make sure you fix it next time

Still dunno what the problem is...

Thanks Joe - what does the 1290 refer to? Regarding the misfire: http://www.vx220.org...load/?p=1919807 thumbsup

By the way, what hose do i need for the short vacuum hose off the supercharger?

Can be done from the top if you have nimble enough hands and right size ratchet. Baby talc sometimes helps as a temporary fix 👍so now you have another use for it 😄
