    Brilliant! I need to start saving up my pennies. I am sure the ECO mode could pay for itself nicely...

    Thanks Paul.

    Cheers,

    Steve.

      I can vouch for Paul's switchable ECU, I've been running it for a few months now and it works a treat! Although I'm thinking I should put the switches out of reach to stop me flicking it into sport mode so often!

      I use eco mode on the motorway most of the time and it does make a difference even when the cruise control is on. But I haven't managed to stop flooring it all the time yet so can't really produce any remarkable fuel consumption figures. Although I have noticed that the mpg on the computer is on average about 3-4mpg higher than it used to be on standard map!

              lol if only there was the space on the M8 to use it! Had a half mile blast when i left the motorway.
              Was just living in fear that it was gonna take a half tank to work and back every day but so far seems liveable!
              Now........LET THE TUNING BEGIN!!!!!

I must admit I am becoming a little compulsive about how high I can get the MPG to..............
