Mine is better on fuel since the remap, I guess it is the extra torque.

iv had my 1.8t on just over 40mpg, 40mph road in 5th gear for a few miles.

ps, coasting doesnt help your mpg, put in a high gear and the cars momentum will run the engine without using any petrol at all, when your coasting your still using petrol to keep the engine idling
