Fuel economy with PFC?

Fuel economy with PFC?
As of right now the motor side is stock and I am getting the worst fuel ever. I get about 180km to a tank at $77 to fill. ***** lasts me 2 or 3 days. I have a power FC that I just got and have yet to put in but am wondering how much better fuel I can get out of the car when I do switch it out. even if I have to get it tuned I am just curious what the car is capable of cause this is getting retarded hahaha

Agreed. But also noting on how much of a lead foot the driver is.
When my FD was stock I used to get ~300 miles (495km) per tank... After I put in my PFC a full tank gave me ~400 (km) (660 km) that is roughly ~24 mpg (39.6 kpg). Now if I'm a lead foot and given that I have 1300's secondaries that mpg drops to like 12-15 . All I know is that I'm glad I didn't go 1600's oof

When I picked up my FD last year I drove it from Richmond VA to KC KS. I didn't know it at the time but the pfc was using an old basemap. Cruising across the states and enjoying some boost here and there through the mountains and curves I averaged 26 mpg the whole trip. Stock injectors, bosch 044 pump.

check your injectors
fuel filter
unless your right foot is a lil to heavy

Well i have done the fuel filter, have changed the 02 sensor when I got the car. Have had it for almost 3 years and its been the same since the day I got the car. What else could be causing the problem? i picked up the 1680 secondaries but do not want to put them in with this already being an issue haha. I have tried to baby the car and most I have gotten out of a tank is 210km.

Have you cleaned your injectors lately? Flow of the injectors could be crap and causing this as well. I would take them out and ship them off to injector rehab or something. It is fairly cheap, and then you know that your injectors are working as efficiantly as possible..
