i understand that the auto revs way to high to fit a motor to give me both economy and power .for those who have done the suby conversion to a auto
etc a2.2 what sort of results do you get.etc power and economy. is 9 to10 litres per 100 around town getable

Our 75 bus with EJ22 Suby gets 10.2/100km around town and 9.5 highway. That is with a manual box.
