Matt, it depends on the year of your car.

John, the cost is not just set against fual saving. Most people that are purchasing the FD model are then modifing the car. With an aftermarket ECU, this then also helps as it sets up the fuelling better than the standard ECU, thus stopping it from running lean, and requiring a rebuild.

Lee, yes I agree that I changed ECU will give better power figures and safty (sp?).

PS. I think Rollin Roads are poo. Get an engine bench dyno\'d/mapped.

I\'m totally new to rataries but I\'ve noticed that my Cosmo smells of fuel on startup, havn\'t noticed it on idle. I\'m getting about 24MPG in mixed driving conditions (including being a hooligan a couple of times).

I\'ve been told to run my 13b Cosmo on super unleaded, is this really necessary, or can I get away with the ordinary stuff?

I also have a very intermittent problem with starting (about once every 2 weeks) after the car has been left to cool down for a couple of hours and then it really smells of fuel. Is this fuel vaporization problems or something more sinister? 99% of the time it starts fine.

So far im just over 250 miles on this tank, driving its pretty slowly most the time.  I can live with that.  Guess my bad MPG is only down to me :p
