Default XR8 thirsty

just to start im not here to complain about not get 7L/100km

latey ive only been getting 250/300km out of a tank in my au xr8
the car has been tuned at autotech runs a G&D intake, hurricane headers and 2.5 inch exhuast and a 3.7 diff (car is auto)

the oxygen sensors have been changed this made no diffrence
swapping tunes between tunes (running the sme tune for 2 weeks with no change) makes only about 10-20km diffrence. always run on 98.
car has had the snapon diagnostic tool hooked up and has showed no errors as well.

the car has been run on the dyno to get air/fuel ratio, they where 12.5/1 but the graph isnt flat like it was on the autotech print out. this was a power run as they only had time for this. it was a little wavie but no spikes.

p.s it isnt getting flogged everwhere, driven in a normal manner while testing all this

should i suck it up or is there something wrong?
