Steve? Has it made that much difference on the SS? Do you think it really is worth changing?
If it is you might persuade me to think a bit more carefully about fuel rather than just the normal mods that cost you an arm and a leg! |
Hard to say because I allways use Optimax, but on the odd occasion I've had to put the normal stuff in (like in the middle of Lincolnshire) it doesn't seem quite as responsive.
