I would agree with this.. I did a run up to Manchester and back a year or so back and did a brim to brim check for consumption and it returned 57.1 mpg which i was very happy with. https://www.the75andztclub.co.uk/for...d.php?t=269044

Also, just so people know with regards to MPG, once remapped you can never trust the MPG readout on the car, it uses the stock injector timings and duration to calculate the MPG, once these have been altered on the ECU the IPK isn't aware and miscalculates. |

So how would that explain the results from a brim to brim test as explained in my post?

Going on a drive isn’t scientific. Engine temperature, gear changes, external temperature, fuel, fuel temperature, air quality, air temperature at intake, throttle usage, engine adaptations will have been reset during map, injectors could decide to perform better one day, higher voltage could result in higher fuel pressure etc. There is all sorts that effects mpg. Do the same trip multiple times and you’ll get different readings.

A 412 mile "drive" is a reasonable sample and clearly every journey would produce different figures due more to traffic than most other variables however i did not claim that it was anything more than a snapshot showing the map had certainly not reduced MPG on this run.
