Valver / decat - fuel consumption

[Nafoff]

am on my first full tank since i fitted the decat and i am sure even though i am only half way through that i am gonna get at least 40 miles short of what i normally get..maybe even 60 miles

this can't be right surely?

 

[domn8]

cant say Ive noticed a difference

Is it due to you over using the loud pedal so you can listen to the noise it makes

 

[ajketley]

when I had the decat on my car the fuel consumption was cr*p, youll get used to it though, great sound!

Made no difference to mine overall.

You probably just puttin your foot down more than you think.

Are you noticing the difference though? Should do.....

What do you expect...with 117bhp at the wheels...

 

[Nafoff]

yeah i have noticed the difference considerably actually...so so much quicker through the rev range....i think this is a bad tank of fuel..i am sure its ok.....

was well chuffed mark..

i think this is what it is aswell since ive done mine ive not really check consumption but certainly have a heavier foot:evil:

yeah me to lol. i like to leave it in lower gears so it revs near 3/4k...awsome sound...

 

[Nafoff]

lol at all the brick foot comments...i have driven a little bit hard i expect but not that bad

 

[The Fatty]

you dont have to drive much harder for it to make a big diff!
