my vl calais turbo is currently stock as a rock, wat are some basic mods i could perform and save fuel consumption without spending too much?

A basic combo to get the car picking up and moving would look something like this: Pod filter 3 inch exhaust (mandrel bend/stainless steel depending on your budget) T Piece boost controller set at 10psi These mod's are budget conscious and will keep you happy for quite a while, but when it come's to fuel economy, the only way is standard. Also, shop around on the forum's etc as these part's are readily available and can be had for dirt cheap. I've given these item's away for free at one stage to clear my garage, so im sure someone will sell them to you for cheap.

isnt there an article on this on the main page of calaisturbo.com?

Definately follow the above approach for first mods. I don't know if you would call these mods good for fuel consumption though. If that is all you are after and nothing else, get a good tune-up with new plugs etc.

and a hyundai excel :mrgreen:

lol Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Drop an RB30 in it.

I wouldn't call my RB30 fuel efficient :/

Well stop givin it a hiding. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Had an rb30 engined car once, it was the most fuel economic engine I owned. Because the bloody thing was always at the mechanic I never really had the time to buy fuel and drive the car. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Your willing to buy a $????? performace car and you want mods but you want fuel economy?? are you joking?

I'm not saying I'm rich or anything, but as long as my car delivers the goods I don't care how much Fuel it uses... :roll:
