It's a EW10J4S with forged internals and a TD04HL-15G on a DaLuz mani... |

| About 28 mpg with a RON102 fuel. A little bit worse, but not much, with a RON98 fuel.

| Thanks guys! The bezels do fit quite well, it's not for everyone I reckon but I think it looks a bit more "modern" this way.
I am currently dialing in the startup-sequence.
