hi everyone got my g40 running nice only problem is it does not seem to use a lot of fuel roughly about 45 - 50 mpg fitted a new lambda and blue temp sender got co pot set with a gas analyser to 460ohms for the correct exhaust emissions read on here somewhere that you only get about 30 -40 mpg was just wondering if i was missing something thanks
I think it will depend a lot on how you drive it, and your driving style...
I get like 30 mpg or less than 30. but I do lots of city driving and stupid accelerations in between...
I've never seen anyone doing so well with fuel consumption (only heard rumors 8)) I would love to have my car doing 45mpg...
I cant see why not if shes driven politely and bone standard. 90% of people have modified g40's running smaller pulleys with remaps and bigger injectors so the will smash fuel consumption
Wish I was hitting those numbers, mine reads about 11-16mpg >.>

haha! bad times, you drive everywhere on full boost?
Nah barely drive it hard at all to be honest, (think of repair bills in the back of my mind probably :P).. unsure why it's so bad, think it's been mapped badly when the cam got uprated.
i get around 38 mpg if i keep it reasonable. always a good warm up and not much braking. even when driven with more acceleration i never got it under 35mpg on a tank. I am convinced u can get it lower if u just rag it up to 6000 rpm every shift or use it on a track.)
running stock aside from 68mm pulley, chip and exhaust manifold & system...
i was worried too when i just bought it, now 3 years later i m a happy man.
More power is on my wanted list though ;D
