Switched to EL manual ecu (car is factory eb2 auto) with j3 chip. Now at idle, it read 99l/100km, and while sitting around 1900rpm reads ~58-59L/100km. I know it's not actually using this much for obvious reasons :P

Is there any way to fix this?

Have you modified the wiring at all? Here's a link that might be handy:
