99 GTB Fuel Consumption?

Using 2 tanks a week then? Maybe a touch more?
Yep a tad more.

A lot of it is running kids from school kindy etc. But then we are 15khs out of town too. So maybe I'm just being unreasonable in the mileage as it is quite a lot. But thought it would be a bit better?

I'm thinking maf might need a clean?

I would say it's fair. It's a performance AWD wagon that's also pre AF sensor, ie it's got a narrow band front O2 sensor rather than the later wideband air/fuel ratio sensor. Yeah try a MAF clean, can't hurt. You're probably better off chucking a brick under the accelerator pedal though.

Being a twin turbo with a pea size primary turbo it will always be on boost, especially with around town driving.

Make sure the plugs are fresh, MAF is clean, thermostat is working and all that good stuff.....and you could also let off the jandal a bit, but who wants to do that ;)

'round town I typically get about 11.5l/100km.  So about 450km before the light comes on and I refill (~48-50l)

 

It'll rise drastically with a heavy foot, or go as low as 9 cruising on the highway.

 

This is a RevB 208 in a short-ish geared BH outback.

 

Secret is to try to keep it off boost.  Its definitely an art of twitching your toe rather than using the foot.

      Afternoon team,
      im new to the group first time posting. Im hoping some body can help me get my launch control all dialled in on my link g4x. Ive had the computer and car all tuned from chris at prestige awesome knowlegable guy super happy with the results but now im wanting to get my launch/anti lag all dialled in. Ive been reading multiple different forums etc all with different conflicking information which has made me nervious with what do i listen to this or that if you get what i mean. Now ive started to make myself familiar with my PClink software etc the past few weeks and im eager to learn how to do minor setups or tweaks etc so im not relieing on my tuner so much and obviously saving myself abit hurt in the back pocket. 
      Now back to the question at hand.... Im wondering if theres and one who could please share there knowledge and wisdom with setting all my values, timing, fuel etc when i have launch control armed and engaged, or even a launch tune file they can possibly send me to load onto my tune. Ive figured out the setup of my digital inputs turning launch control on etc and its obvisously on its pre set factory settings. It engages but doesnt sound the greatest or as angry as it should i feel. Hence reaching out to you good buggers. 
       
      Cheers in advance for any info and help yous maybe able to give me.
       
      Cheers Shaun
