Exhuast and cambelt

[Tony05]

First of my cars at 55000 miles when around this time shud the cambelt be changed,i bought it at 50.000
also,ive had performance exhaust's on other cars,full system and as im a delivery driver my petrol went so quick,im just wondering will it go down at all with a savage backbox or say the backbox and an induction kit,or just the bb as no power comes from just this,just want a nice sound without loosing fuel?will it make a diff,has anyone noticed higher fuel costs with just a backbox over standard,or say bb and filter,thanks guys

dont think a back box will make much difference, filter will though..

 

[Andy_J]

petrol probably goes down due to the way the car is driven.

My car will be 4 years old when it is due for it's 2nd service. It will have done a maximum of 20k by then, and although Renault say to do the cam belt by 72k or 5 years, I have heard that they can go at around 30k, so taking that into account and the fact my car will be 4 years old, I am taking no chances and will be getting it done then. Better safe than sorry I say.
