    Maybe the lift and the wider and bigger bfg tyres is taking some mpgs from me?

    That was my thoughts, but as noted above, Gavin has a similar set up to yourself and is able to get around 10. Even Phat-customs with the mud tyres is getting just under 11 - which with mud tyres is good. You may want to intentionally try to drive economically and see what is the best you can get.

    If you are planning to keep the D2 for a while and do your own diagnostics, then you want to get a Nanocom Evolution unit. Even without a Nanocom a turbo boost gauge and EGT gauge are good investments as well. This will give us clues as to if the engine is running how it should.

    I have both, and if only buying one device would get the Nanocom first. One of the benefits is you can record and save data - saves at close to 1 cycle per second. Very handy for trouble shooting and sharing the output with others. But the real neat feature is with the 15P/16P engine you can remap the ECU with an upgrade map from AULRO member td5inside and customise it to how you want it to perform.
