I have a D22 with the 3L TD and its getting around 10.3L/100 at the moment but is it pretty much driving too and from work,mostly highway.

When driving on site it gets a bit more but nothing too bad.

i think tank size is 75 litres with about 10 litres left at the e mark.
600km doesn't sound good but that may be a case of new engine and your style of driving ;)

mods for economy, probably get rid of the muffler and cat. however first of all fit boost and egt guages.

a fan on the intercooler would help a lot to.

a catch can is very highly recommended.

in theory ANY mod you do will void the warranty. they will use any excuse to get out of warranty work.

however provided the mod didn't cause the damage you should be ok but expect a fight for it.

fill it back up to get a rough idea of fuel used. going by the guage is a waste of time as you can fit another 5-10 litres over the full mark on the guage. also the guage doesn't read exact, it takes a long time to go throught he first half and quicker to go through the 2nd half.
