Are you absolutely sure you measured when the car was, hot, fully warmed up, as in driving it moderately hard for an hour? My numbers are way high when the car is not fully warmed up.

Warmed up, yes, but I am not sure about it being hot/driven to an hour. I will try and do that this weekend. I did have about 15-20 minutes on it this last time with a fueling break about halfway in that time period. Good points. Thank you.
