oh i forgot to say, there is a quick way to measure your BSFC. what i did was i recorded a WOT run with my scangauge displaying the GPH gauge. I took the maximum number it reported, which i think it was 12gal and multiplied it roughly by 6 to get the pounds of fuel burnt per hour. then i divided that number by the horsepower (170) and i got 0.42. Subaru claims a 0.418 lb/ps/hr for my car i think.

fairly accurate
