  1. So I've had this second ute for a while now, got it retuned 3-4 weeks ago , only driven it 4 times since (10-15 km's each time) BY JEEBUS it GUZZLES! .... my average is reading 33.7l/100km, but that's not what I'm judging by, I'm judging by the fact that I drive to a mates house and its like I've driven Bathurst lol. I haven't been stabbing it , I have been seeing what the best "economy" I can get out of it. Obviously I know a tuned 6 isnt about less consumption, but when its sucking worse than a MAF tuned V8 when I'm being a nanna I had to ask the question.......Is it normal? It's tuned by a reputable Perth ford tuner using X4 flasher, just had 1000Id 80lb injectors put in , had the seimens 80lb deka taken out (which were 1000kms old) was told that they're no good to tune for nice idle, the car was also having stalling issues ... In the end they still had problems on the dyno , in the end they had to clean the fuel system out because possibly octane booster had be put through the fuel system and disintegrated a performance fuel filter. The lines had to be all cleaned etc and then they got it sorted , also a fuel opening in a steel pipe fitting had been crushed ever so slightly but was replaced. (had two stalls since- hoping its clearing its throat :s) mods are: -atomic hd valve springs. -process west stage 3 cooler -Turbo smart race port bov -Brand new genuine ford lifters -Brand new Bosch 044 fuel pump and 4l surge tank -Brand new id1000 injectors. -Brand new genuine coil packs -New fuel filter and all system cleaned -Nizpro forward facing plenum -Gt35/40 turbocharger ported and bigger wastegate -11.8 actuator -Battery relocation - 4’’ dephillipo dump, twin 3" exhaust -K&n intake pod to turbo running 368rwkw /493.5hp @15.5psi I had my old utes same make and model as this one now (BA mkii 2005 6 speed xr6t) and it was tuned to 285rwkw @12psi and really it didnt seem to drink anymore than the factory tune
