Hey,
had the exhaust done lastnight, just took the rear mufflers off for now and got some quad tips happening.
Drove to work this morning and was averaging 6km per litre on the highway?
Does the ECU need to learn the difference and adjust itself?
I reset the ECU before i left work and am hoping that might help?
Has anyone else had this problem? If so, what should i do?

Cheers in advance, Sean

im no expert but this is what i think

hey its going to take abit to adjust, its used to having back pressure and when its flowing alot better, you will find it will inject more fuel for a small amount of time till it re adjusts, computer will think its running lean till it works out how much to inject, also check your EGO as it may not be getting signal to tell it to run in closed and open loop modes, had this problem in other efi systems when using loads of fuel for no reason
