Add e85 to the mix and it only gets worse, but your consumption is somewhat normal 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Puffwagon Puff Gold Donating Members 15,972 Member For: 9y 10m 21d Gender: Male Location: South Australia Posted 27/02/19 11:47 AM Share Posted 27/02/19 11:47 AM Fuel economy is an integral part of making power. You want everything to be as efficient as possible which will return the best fuel economy. This doesn't mean that you get great L/100km in a high powered vehicle. To get an idea of how much fuel a 500+rwkw falcon uses on ethanol... Roughly calculated, 6x1000cc injectors are pumping about 6 litres per minute flat out. You aren't at 100%injdc all the time but you will still use about a cup of fuel every time you do a 5 second wot pull. 0 to 100kph at wot=1 cup. Overtake like a mofo=1/2 cup. Drive half throttle to 110=???, etc etc. You've only got about 250 cups of fuel in a tank. They disappear very quickly with high power and e85. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
