Went for a cruise then these are the resultscold start idle 5.4l/hr (the average climbed from 33.7 to 34)warm idle 2.4l/hr (started driving and the average continually dropped )60km/h 3rd 17-19l per 100km60km/h 4th 15-16l per 100km100km/h 5th 16.2l per 100km (after the drive and getting home the average is now at 29.There was an aspect I didnt stop to consider.. its still running the same tank of fuel from when I had it tuned and ive only driven it a few times, and I remember when I got it back from the tune it was up in the high 60kms , possibly 70kms I cant remember exactly. But basically im pretty sure the car hasnt sorted itself out yet as I havent driven enough since the tune . It should continue to drop as its "averaging" and obviously on the dyno its get smashed over and over.pretty much explains it hey? do the given results seem right?
