Just use an F20. It won't make a difference.

If you want lower revs, do it why not.

How much will you save in petrol costs compared to the cost of parts and parts to fit? I suppose over a year you might save enough to cover the costs of some gearbox oil .

f18 will feel shit when you want to use the power

cruising at 60 with f20 will still get you decent mpg
