After stage 1 ecu remap, big decrease in fuel

[QiQiDude]

hey watwheels thx a bunch for the info man

yes apperently you can do a stage 1 remap with performance boost (not max) and better mpg while driving normal

i will add a pic that uses a stage 1 remap

was it be better if i had chosen that one instead of just asking for max engine power?

the red bar says 5% fuel efficiency

[QiQiDude]

ok

i don't know how or why but it seems it has stabilized a bit

while non stop driving and testing

did the system had to adjust or something?

because when doing the remapping the system went haywire for a bit in the beginning when he entered the ecu

but still it feels like im losing allot of fuel while starting in first and second gear

 

because everything is now more tense and stoffer while driving and not like before the remap where, when you start in first and second gear it's more relaxed

 

I heard a guy say with 467nm of torque you should have at least 300hp and not less

What does he mean by that?

[QiQiDude]

467nm of torque is around 345lb.ft

[QiQiDude]

Ok no

Its still draining after further tests

I noticed im even using fuel when on neutral going forward

When the car is almost is about to stop on neutral its like its still going forward adding fuel even when on neutral

This is not normal

[QiQiDude]

ok im going back to the tuning company to ask him if he could give me more mpg for little less power

because looks like im using about 20km of fuel for driving 8km

and that's when driving normally and not surpassing the 2000 rpm....

There's no free lunch.

Power comes from fuel.

You want more power, you consume more fuel.

I like this comment a lot!

Not necessarily.  Many stock engines are engineered to take 87 octane fuel (at least in North America they are).  If you advance the timing through ECU remap, you can use higher octane fuel to make more power without losing gas mileage.
