Default 8-valve engine on a 16-valve ECU

Anyone ever ran a P06 on an 8-valve engine and had crappy MPG's? I'm not sure if running a P05 would improve it since DX harness has 4-wire O2 sensor vs. single wire for the CX map...

Any suggestions?

Thought I should add some crickets.

[chirp chirp]

My suggestion is chip the P06 and have someone who knows what they're doing tune the car.

Hahaha I was going to add those also...

My only problem with that is it's a zero mod car and completely bone stock that my mom drives in NY and the only reputable tuner I know is in my area...it was bought as a replacement motor from a JDM engine importer. It runs fine on the P06 and when she told me she was getting under 30 mpg, my only thought was it was a CX 8-valve engine...
