I love the PRM but this is a little low. Or is it?

depends how much vtecing you've been doing I guess.

Could it be that the addition of the PRM has made you drive a bit harder?

Mine averages about 25 with or without the PRM, have managed 33 on a long boring motorway run.

PRM didn't make any difference to my fuel consumption apart for wanting to hear that sound, it's my right foot that really causes the problem

PRM will use more when first fitted, we dont know why but suspect it is the right foot syndrome
