Bootmod3 and fuel consumption
Hey guys - about a week now since I've had bm3 installed. Just stage 1 but a drastic improvement in power from stock. I've also noticed a significant decrease in fuel efficiency.
I understand there are a ton of variables for something like this but generally speaking, what are you guys experiencing? I've gone from 11.5l/100k on average to 14.1/100km. Would be interested to hear others. |

First off, I don't know how to convert this numbers from southern California, I got BM3 s1 back January with Aug 2018 map... was I lost 2 mpg on average running 18-19 mpg (80% city and 20% hwy) on sport mode.
Then come service so I went back to stock.... I immediately flash back but before that I saw new improve map ots 4.3. Download This map gave me back good mpg I say I'm back to 20-21 mpg with the same driving conditions |

More power+more go pedal +more fun= (-MPG). Every damn time.
My car (when flashed) got 23.2 combined. WITHOUT the flash, I get 25-27mpg combined...but the car isn't near as fun to drive stock.

Yup an average of negative 1.5 - 2 mpg.... with BM3 s1 flash. But the new ots map update is alot better on mpg. I measured it 5 times already and got improve mpg from the previous ots map. . ( measure done full tank to full tank, miles driven devided by gallons used)

I flashed a little over a month ago, has there been another OTS update since then?

I dont know these liter, kilometer, and pastas per mamma mia's metics, but my mods (downpipe, jb4) effectively reduced my gas mileage by about 33%. I used to average around 330 miles before I needed to re-fuel. I now stop to get gas around the 220 mile mark.
