Pedal box

So I've just fitted the pedal box to my car and it's definitely changed.

I'm just worried it's going to use a lot more fuel.

Like for instance. - usually I drive round and say I'm in 3rd outing my foot down to change to 4th it might say I'm getting 11/12mpg.

With the pedal box on I had it in sport+ and level 3 it's saying I'm getting 5mpg.

Even when I've put my foot down flat out I've never seen it go as low as 5mpg I've seen 8mpg bombing it down in 3rd/4th.

So my old man has a 1.6 n/a and I'm gonna try it on that and see if he'll buy it off me lol.

What's everyone else's experience with theirs?

Had mine on the car for around a year, prior to the pedal box I got around 51mpg according to the computer and now I get 49.5mpg...that could he the box or could be winter or could be my driving... However nothing to report home about, I still fill up the same amount every week as I always have done and nothing has changed... Except the car feels miles quicker and no turbo lag!

Got a bit used to it now. It's hell of a difference you've literally just gotta touch the pedal which is what I'm not used too lol. My car is already quick so don't think that helps with sport+ at max lol.

But put it on the slow 1.6 and you can feel it makes a great difference. Sport+ in his car and in 3rd is a massive difference. So he's using it for a day and letting me know tomorrow if he wants it lol.
