      lol well its not great! i usually get around 450km/tank

      was averaging 12.1
      deleted my egt's went stg2+ and im now at 11.6 driving hard,

      On the highway im about 9.5-10.5L

      best tank i ever had was 505km, could of pushed it another 25km if i wanted.
      Its hard to keep my foot out of it now, thinking i could do over 500km if i tryed.

          I'm by no means a lead foot. I'm stage III and on my last 2 tanks I have achieved ~235 miles. 376KM My fuel mileage is poor even if I baby it and stay out of boost.

          Pay to play.

            Colin your fuel mileage sucks, on the A6 I see a mixed driving average of 10.2. the mix is about 60% hwy 40% city. Ask those that drive and cruise with me, I rarely take it easy.

            Colin, it may be time to look at EGT's and primary O2's, it seems as though you may be running rich in part throttle conditions

                  Just for those wondering, I have re-calibrated my trip to account of 60# injectors. I have a large tank, but I always see 600+ km's per tank

                      EGTs are brand new. I can check the Primary O2s. My mileage is 100% city though. No highway at all, i rarely even see a freeway in town. So take that into account. I don`t get bogged down in rush hour much, but its all stop and go city.

                      An extra 100KM out of a tank would be nice.

                            Keep in mind that his tank has about 15 liters on you...

                              Will do. I`ll log them to and from work and to and from the rock gym tomorrow.

                              The numbers these people are posting for a B5 S4 though, ~10l/100KM, are what I saw with the exact same route/commute when I had a MKV GTI.

                              I doubt I'm going to end up in the 10L/100KM camp if a brand new, DSG MKV GTI was seeing 10L/100KM.
