had my first R-Tech Map

Yeah. Just demoralising getting so little especially on runs where I'm being careful and sticking to 70.
After the first time you mapped it, it was great. 30+mpg on a run and 28ish even after a hoon. I think removing the pre car made a big difference in mpg as its after that ( and the subsequent visit to re tune) that its dipped.
Can't complain with the power or the service from r-tech though who has been brilliant.

It hard to see how and why mpg is lower, it's running lambda 1 for cruise and not trims anywhere during cruise. Fuel enrichment by driver demend starts at 80% throttle and .98 2500 rpm .89 3500 rpm
And .84 4500rpm. all I can think is added drag somewhere? Another thing we can try is to refit pre cat? I have an exhaust here we can test. Another thing could be is some of the pre cat sitting in the main cat and reducing flow??

I have stage 1 R-Tech and pre cat delete and my mpg is still down in the low-mid 20s (last tank averaged 25.6mpg on my iphone mpg calculator and i was going carefully!)
Been back to R-Tech 2 or 3 times, changed many bits inc most recently the MAF and it still hasn't changed..
Love the power but even with my power im sure my MPG is lower than it should be still.

I get around 31-35 avg on the motorway driving between 70 and 90 and around sheffields hill laden town and B roads which is where most of my driving occurs I get around 25-27 but if drive steady I can get 30 relatively easy.

Is yours DSG or manual? If manual how is your clutch getting on?
