AMS tbe installed.. sucking down gas

Left york, pa. Today after having my tbe installed at CBRD. Very nice place, nice people, will be going back there for anything needed done. Had half a tank of gas, got home with a little under a quarter. The drive is only 35 miles. Will a tbe with test pipe do this, I wouldnt think so. Any suggestions or anything. The only thing I was thinking was I had an extra bung welded on rom AMS for a future a/f guage, and I hand tightened it to the downpipe. Maybe it never gor tightened the whole way, idk

nothing was changed but the turboback,
that wont affect mileage considerably especially since it already had a previous turboback on it!!

cheers
