Given fuel prices I dont blame you, if you're keeping the AU for a while then it certainly will pay itself off.
Just dont get upset when riced up lancers hand you your **** at the traffic light drags :

LOL,
I'll just pass them when they stop at the bank, to get a loan, to pay for the petrol they used.

Very nice install, looks great!

I still say you can make an AU fuel efficient on petrol. I'm sitting around 11-13L/100km. Should drop a bit more, when i get some more things done to it. And in the end, it only costs a tad bit more a week. But in your case, it should be worth it. :voldar02:

Having just an auto with no performance mods, the tickford intake and K&N filter seem to have kept my acceleration as it was before. I’m happy with the 'feel' of the drive over the past 2 weeks.
