These are notorious for guzzling fuel, even though they are a non-turbo engine. Most likely due to a broken sensor they inject on EVERY cylinder at once = thirsty.

This one is my race car, so it will be interesting to see how the economy fairs, given that most of the time it's at full throttle, high revs.
