Moose Member 185 Member For: 17y 2m 13d Gender: Male Location: Ipswich, QLD Posted 13/02/09 03:37 AM Share Posted 13/02/09 03:37 AM Hey Crew!For what ever reason my search function just 'times out' and I cant get any answers, plus I figured with fuel atm, petrol companies are probably charging full price for 98ron when its really 96ron or watered down etc so needed real time consumption figures.I have a 2006 BF MKI F6. Have the 10psi generic flash tune through it and a deleted centre muffler. My average fuel (from the dash) is about 16-17 L/100K!!! Does this sound right? Over all, from a full tank I get between 250-300k's - that's driving relatively sensible with the odd stab here and there. Fully grandpa driving I get about 350k's. With the standard tune I get about 350k relatively sensible driving, and 400-420k's granpa. Is this about right? Or should I start looking for problems? What can I do to increase fuel economy - is there anything?Post up your L/100k reading as per your dash and your averages k's to a tank along with what your car is.Cheers all.

I get 12.5 to 13.0 from my F6 with almost 600hp. It goes up to 13.0 when I give it hell on a cruise for example. I do mostly highway driving and I'll get 500ks out of a tank.

Guest Guests Posted 13/02/09 05:32 AM Share Posted 13/02/09 05:32 AM My average is ~13.8 - 14.0L/100 with 400rwkw & I only drive it hard. It's my second car so no need to drive sedately to work & what not... Just foot to the floor on weekends & at the track.I usually get between 400 & 450km from a tank but probably quite a bit more when driven carefully (Yet to be tested).

revhead_71 Member 83 Member For: 17y 4m 21d Gender: Male Location: Sydney Posted 17/02/09 08:44 AM Share Posted 17/02/09 08:44 AM Im getting an average of 16-17L/100km and the car is 100% stock. This involves basically 90% city ...stop/go driving.However over XMAS when I combined existing driving, with predominantly highway driving.....fuel economy went all the way down to 11.7L/100km!What kills these cars is hauling that 1800kg of lard ass off the mark!
