big sucker!
i know rotaries are heavy on fuel but my 3g is ridiculous,i'm talking 5mpg on a car modified with blitz intakes,cat bak ex. i split the ecu (std.)today to see if it had been chipped to run rich,but everything inside seems std.cant see or smell fuel leaks either.car shows 3.5%co,backfires a fair bit so it seems its just running v.rich.is it poss. its got phat injectors? running off the stock ecu maybe? anyway the consumption is killing me 4 a near stock rex and fuel is not cheap in the u.k. any ideas people? thanks.

Sounds like something is wrong with the car....
I would start with the basic maintenance points:
* Change oil/filter
* Change/clean intake filters
* Change fuel filter
* Change spark plugs (and wires if needed)
* Change O2 sensor
* Flush coolant
If you can, it might not be a bad idea to remove your injectors and have them cleaned and flow-balanced.
