Sam that is amazing! Have you fitted it to a car to check actual fuel use?

No, I haven't. I don't really build my own cars, so I don't have one to use. :P That is a good idea though, maybe we should all get one model to base our MPG numbers on?

That might work, I'm not too good at car building yet but I have a couple of test mules I run engines through. My 47% returns 64ish mpg (3.6-3.7L/100km) in a 2000lb fwd 5speed. Top speed of only 90mph though.
