If it has (and it is a problem for you), you're standing on the loud pedel too much. :w00t2:

Na I tried switching back to factory tune couple of times just to compare while taking it easy and it is a little thirstier. I'm not really fussed since it made the car a whole lot better but just annoys me a little to hear everyone saying how a tune improves fuel economy but mine made it worse :(.

I recently got 600 kms to a tank while sitting on 125kms the whole way driving from Perth to Kalgoorlie, Pretty stoked about that given I got 336 at the wheels!!!

That's equal to BCL's 600km per tank that he achieved by babying his F6 around. Must of been a hell of a flat road with no traffic!

Better than stock

66km trip each day to work and back over 8 day period. From the Hills district to the city is M2 motorway, and I have to drive through several suburbs to get to the M2, and also encounter city traffic lights and various hold-ups and stops to get to my city parking spot. Also other driving along busy Parramatta road one day.

Stayed off the boost, but not driving slow.

My FG isn't tuned yet and I only get 300 km out of tank so goes to show how much better a tune does!

Though I do wear steel capped boots every day so my foot could be slightly heavy. :nod:

wow sounds like lead boots lol

last time I reset and actually bothered to monitor my avg it was 13.???, that's driving to and from work for the week.

the average for a normal week to and from work, cruising with alot of spirited driving is around the 15.0 mark.

am getting on an average week 450km+ to a tank.
