340awkw i get 200km/tank flat.. no boost..

Dude I thought my car was bad. I can understand if you're on constant boost. Are you sure all the usual culprits have been tested? O2 sensor, oil filter, injectors, fuel filter, AFR, you're not leaving the handbrake on :(?

I'm curious whats the consumption like for those 1000hp cars... hahaha.

There's a reason those cars need 200L/hr fuel pumps :cool:

lol everythin is workin fine.. its partially my choice.. lol told the tuner no compromise.. haha but its city driving tho.. not highway :) only part i sacrifices was top end power for mid range :banana:

18L/100km... thats shit! But I suppose if you're running high hp, you can justify that.
lol terrible... i have about the same power as you and last tank got 420km.

Before the tune it was doing about 500km per tank, so extra 100kw in the tune and only lost 80km per tank, pretty good.

:banana:

280rwkw here, 450-500 CBD style driving, 600-650 freeway. I don't expect that to change with 330rwkw, because if you are just crusing around power output should make zero difference.

My fuel filler cap literally leaks when going around tight corners, so im probably losing a litre or two each tankas well (i can see it pouring out lol).

So I could probably get more if i wanted... I'll be doing a Syd run in Feb/Mar so ill find out exactly what i can do provided i don't get to excited on the way up hehe

Oh, and im not using O2 sensors either.

Big difference between no compromise tune and one that is just crap.

And honestly, you can have perfectly good power level/response and reasonable economy @ the same time.

200km's is 50 1/4. Fk that... You win the worst tune award - i'd be taking it back.

Something must be wrong then with my 33.

its even a sedan and its only reaching 360 a tank.. and its stock like a rock. ive had the o2 sesonsor and everything checked i still can not find a reason to why it would be doing this...

ive got an r34 gtr and think the fuel consumption isnt that bad, i dont have exact figures because i tend to fill up whenever i feel like so sometimes when i have a quarter of a tank or other times a little less. it seems to only use a little bit more than my old r34 gtt. and i know the fuel consumption can definately be better it runs very rich. id say i would get roughly from just adding up the km in my head and from when i filled it up till now because ive only been to work and back plus this is in stop start traffic ive traveled roughly 300-350km and still have a quarter of a tank left.

ps. thats still giving it a squirt here and there.

Doesnt matter mate. Just reset your meter when you fill up and note how much you travel and top up the next time. You'll be able to work out a L/100km or km/L consumption easily.

A tank consumption isnt always accurate because you dont know how much L you've used, unless you run it till it stop.

  • 2 weeks later...

finally got figures for my r34 gtr, driving was a mixture of everything: stop start traffic, freeway and of course giving it a squirt here and there. all it has is a catback exhaust and my average is 14.1L/100km, if i kept going i could of easily gone 400km to a tank.

    • Per Mark Roberts of Sonictune: Mark Robert Author At this time, no. No ETA either 2016-17 models. You will be able to purchase and install a 2018.5+ TCU though   TCU purchasing and pricing info! As we near the release of TCU tuning, I am going to answer some questions I get asked often.   What do I need for TCU tuning? At this time, you will need a 2018.5+ TCU to be able to tune. If you have a 2016-to early 2018, you will need to replace your TCU with the newer version. One good way to know if your TCU is good is if you have auto upshift in manual mode in 1st gear around 6500 rpms. If your manual 1st gear goes to 7k rpm and will hit the rev limiter unless you shift, you have the older TCU.   Why do I need to buy another ecu license/phone flash if I already have it on my ECU tune? The TCU is its own computer module. It is completely separate from the ECU. Because of this, you will be required to purchase a TCU license and, if your tuner has it, the phone flash license required to tune it via phone/bluetooth.   Do I need TCU tuning? TCU tuning is NOT required. However, the faster your setup, the more it will assist in track and dragy time consistency.   If I’m ECU tuned by (tuner A) can I get my TCU tuned by (Tuner ? Yes, since it’s a different module and a completely separate flash, you can have two different tuners. However, it is highly recommend that you have both tuned by the same tuner. For me, my TCU tuning will directly complement my ECU tuning style and features and running my ECU and another TCU or vice versa MIGHT cause some issues. At this time and for the foreseeable future, I will only be tuning my current ECU tuned customers TCUs.     I have a SYVECS AWD controller. Do I still need it? Yes! The AWD controllers main job is to control your AWD system. However, with TCU tuning, you will no longer need the auto-shift function as that will be done through the TCU. The AWD controller will still be very beneficial for racers looking to maximize traction on the launch.     Shift schedule changes: holding gears longer at lower pedal input as well as max shift rpm changes. Please note, the new ECU race rom coming out will address 90% of the shitty drivability issues these cars have through custom maps from myself and Racebox—as well as others I am sure.   Increase shift speeds: as seen in the videos I’ve been posting, the TCU shifts much faster once tuned.   Increased shift pressures: as also seen in the videos, much firmer full throttle shifts.

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
    • Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.
    • What ECU are you running? This is probably the biggest question. If it's a PowerFC, I'd probably change the ECU and get something newer that will handle the injectors in a nicer way.
