Fuel consumption – Tuning and fuel consumption?
Will the car use more fuel during acceleration and increased load?
The general principle is basically: the more power the more fuel/air blend. The fuel consumption can increase during acceleration due to the amount of power required.

The total consumption always depends on driving methods, maintenance etc. By exclusively using the extra power when it is really necessary and by a form of instinctive “eco driving”, you can achieve good fuel economy even on BSR’s tuned engines.

These elements mean that a car tuned by BSR in general has lower average fuel consumption then before the tuning. BSR and our clients experience that the fuel reduction is 3-5%.

We have not documented the fuel consumption during tuning. This would require sophisticated test procedures with completely identical driving schedules under identical conditions.

BSR does not guarantee any fuel reduction.

By installing sport air filters and full flow exhaust systems less resistance is achieved and this can give a fuel consumption reduction.
