I used 60lts in about 5-6 x 5 lap outings, 2 hillclimbs and 5 auto test runs which were maybe each the length of a double skid pan run at RAC while I was at Collie over the weekend.

Pack a few more Jerry cans than you think if you plan on sinking the boot in..

Not sure as I haven't re-filled, but expect I've used 40l for similar time on the track. (98 obviously)

Anyway had Stechnic change oils, filters, and switched to my 18" track rims and AD08's in preparation for a visit to Collie Motorplex this Sunday.
With the new E85 tune and some warm AD08's I can see some smoke making and skids coming up.

My mate Peter just had the poverty 257 engine I assembled for him in the ACT tuned at ESP racing. I built this engine 2 years ago.
It made 246 kW and 550 nm at 22psi tapering to 18 psi at higher boost.
It's a bits a engine made from assorted left over 08 sti parts from 257 engines with just a set of CP pistons and a set of head studs. I blocked off the avcs and plugged up the oil holes in the cams and made a cam trigger bracket for the head to suit a set of 99/00 cam wheels. Running vipec ecu. On 98 Ron fuel Peter tells me he has the same turbo as you are running

Interesting story Neil. I hope he has a good clutch...

On related matters the Family Racing Wagon is now sporting a new Exedy HD Ceramic Twin Plate Clutch. First impressions are very favourable.
