Default mileage question......closed loop

all you msd closed loop people, what sort of mileage are you getting on a long journey

i have done 2 long motorway trips this week, and used a full tank, and it did 293 miles??

is this good, id have thought it would do more than that, i wasnt booting it alot, mostly staying between 75-85

just curious as to what you other guys are seeing, maybe mine needs a litle more tweaking, which may involve a trip to blackpool at some point

A full tank would average me 300 to 350 miles mixed motorway and round town driving, and a good long motorway run (Huddersfield to Hull, ferry, then Rotterdam to the'Ring - 350 miles) and I had 1/4 tank left over, so that full tank would of seen a good 400 miles easily

that was stage 3, T34, dark greens, 27psi spike, 23 held, closed loop, coilpack etc etc
