My guess is it's the excitement of your new toy. Happens every time I install new performance parts. We all want to hear it and feel it, especially that signature turbo "PSSSH" which requires positive boost then quickly letting off the gas. Not exactly good driving habits for good MPG, but we all do it.
Just have fun with it, then when your driving habits go back to normal reset your average MPG meter and you should see very little difference from stock.

I will be installing my down pipe this coming Saturday and i will be running without tune or piggybank. Is it safe?
The car already have invidia full invidia exhaust, K&N air filter, and innovate widenand gauge.... i been watching my air/fuel ratio full boost 15+ psi full throttle showing about 10.8 - 11.5, cruising and idle about 14.7-15... which seem safe but I don’t know after the downpipe...

You’ll be fine. I’ve been running my car with the downpipe and stock ECU for almost 4k miles. No check engine lights and no issues with how it drives.
im glad to hear that.... anyway what brand and type downpipe u have? Are you using Oxygen sensor extended?
I have a decatted TTI downpipe. My car never threw a CEL so I didn't have to get an o2 extender. It just has the internal tube for the sensor that prevents it. Other members have had a CEL even with the internal tube and have had to use an o2 extender

alright, ppe included a straight extender oxygen sensor for my downpipe..anyway i just got mine intalled, it took me about 2.5 hrs with turbo muffler delete, would have been faster if I wasn’t watching my daughter at the same time... took the car around the block and the car is very responsive felt stronger than before While looking on the boost gauge it build boost faster than before....
