Anyone owned a Xedos 9 2.3 Miller SuperCharged?

Fitted a replacement piece of piping... 21 years and this one was hot with holes in it etc etc... so, new 76mmm piping now on :-)

Then degreased the engine bay... problem I have now is removing some of this LPG install now and working what goes to what as it no longer is employed in the engine. Christ it's like spegetti.

Ok, so, since cleaning all the fueling system etc, filled up Xena and looked at the MPG... so, 200 of it was motorway, the other 116 miles were town, stop and start usual... just averaged 29.78mpg! which have to admit, I'm pretty happy with there on a car that's done 100k miles and hasn't had much running in past 9 years... also not bad considering it's stilla 2.3ltr V6 with a super charger... not exacly economincal... but getting twice what the SRT8 gets so... the way I think of it is, I'm saving money hahaha

Well, today I changed the pads on the rear as I noticed something odfd with them... after 5 years... look at the state of this... PAGID pads are gash... I pulled a set of the SRT8 that came with it last year and they crumbled in my hands... these have been on 5 years... never in 30+ years of driving have I had another set do this... absolutely appalling quality so replaced with MINTEX as I've ran these for years on the rears of all my cars... never had a problem... only reason they were on the Xedos is I had a spare set for some reason and thought they're be fine rather than buying Mintex... how wrong I was!
