Mazda Malaysia does..... Or you can go Amoil, Wangan or Ah Choy's place...... All you need is suitable engine oil....

On average, the fuel consumption is between 12 to 14 liters per 100km

If drive like Uncle, then can get 6 to 8 liters per 100km
If drive aggressive, then it is very very bad.

It all depends on your driving style. Below are 2 examples of how driving style affects the fuel consumption:

3rd Gear - hard acceleration

3rd Gear - gentle acceleration

The sweet spot for good fuel economy is cruising between 2250rpm to 3000rpm *& maintain steady pressure on the throttle pedal.

At one point of steady cruising at 3000rpm, my Cobb Accessport showed 6 Liters/100km
