I got an injection system on the BA, installer said it would use around 10% more, but in my experience it’s using roughly about 30% more. Around 11.5lts on petrol and anywhere between 15-16ltrs on gas. Driving 70% around town 30% open roads/freeway. 10% in my experience would be very hard to achieve, what system you running btw??

Cheers


I'm running Easyjet. Sounds like your system is either running rich or you have a very heavy right boot. Mine was using about 30% more gas when the installer was tuning it, but with an o2 meter on the car i found it was pretty rich & have leaned it out myself, as i have the tune interface & software. It's still a tad rich, but nowhere as bad as the installer was tuning it. Mileage has improved a lot.

more like an extremely light right foot- hardly sees revs over 2000- I really look after my cars- well its booked in for a gas service tomorrow, hopefully they can bring the fuel consumption down!
and sorry for stormz for hijacking the thread.

Fair enough dude. I swap cogs usually at 3000rpm, sometimes higher, i'm known to see 4500 in first on takeoffs. :lol:

It's sorta a hijack, but then again knowing what other's fuel consumption is like might help stormz make a decision on which setup.
