Ok well let me ask something bold, given I have an SSV Redline as a daily driver.
What if anything can be done to increase the fuel economy?
Hypermiling to save a quid on fuel in a two tonne V8 does makes sense if you intend to clock several hundred thousands of kms, for work (definitely not worth it for most garage queens). Tuning is the most expensive part, so the way to net savings is with a small investment in a wideband sensor and scantool. This ultimately pays dividend with spend less at the pump and with your tuner.
TL;DR - Tuning and mechanical tweaks are required for serious consumption drop, tuning for alternative, cheaper fuel is key.
Stage -1 Drive like you are 10 mins from the servo on the last five litres of fuel.
Stage 0 - Swap 2.92 gears, retain standard plugs and thermostat. Keep lubrication fresh, air filter and sensors clean (MAF, O2). Use Unleaded e10 fuel that's 95 RON (eg United). Do full wheel alignment with 245s and consider nitrogen to easily set optimum tyre pressure.
Stage 1 - Minimise pressure drop through induction and exhaust with off-the-shelf bolt-ons eg. Air Dam, CAI, catback or axleback.
Stage 2 - Maximise velocity and air speed efficiency with devices tuned to (RPM of MBT and peak HP) of near stock motor eg. ported throttle, extractors, secondaries and HFCs, proper x-pipe.
This necessitates a tune - Swap [electronic throttle position and DFCO] per US Camaro. Calibrate fuel injectors for idle / cruise (no extra pulse, SOIT etc) smooth out part throttle transient fuel compensation.
Stage 3 - Increase the volumetric efficiency by introducing tumble in the runners via manifold Rod Mod, install high ratio rockers and beehives to increase time / area duration of stock cam for more torque with better fuel atomisation. If auto then consider retrofitting revised AFM per L99. Tune again.
Stage 4 - Raise the overall thermal efficiency through increased compresssion and expansion ratio by shaving heads, decking block (or both) and installing a cam optimised for max torque in the operating range. Consider VVT cam and phaser per L99. Swap stock flimsy balancer for a larger Fluidampr to smooth and store torque. Tune again.
Stage 5 - Patch the fuel composition sensor and tune again to enable flex fuel calibrations in the tune and fill up with ~$1/litre fuel where available + similar consumption = better $/km.
Bottom line: Stock BSFC is 0.47 on PULP, with some minor modification you can achieve much better than that. Better still you can get similar (0.50) on e85, which comes at 1/2 to 2/3 the price. Most NA mods are all about HP and can blow BSFC out to 0.60 while screwing cruise torque and quality of transitions.
