Welcome to AO... What size tank are you using and how many shots per fill are you getting? It may not be too far off... What marker did you used to have (and are comparing it to)?

I am only running a 48 3000psi and am gettin around 500 -600 shots....my buddy has an emag and does better than that with the same tank.( even in manual mode)...The thing is ...the gun is runnin sweet but...very thirsty on air ...I am just wondering if theres anything I can check that I havent already..( gun is always cleaned and maintained)...I really appreciate any advice

Thats actually pretty good for that gun. Mags really arnt that thersty, they just can't shoot down too low.

Does your bud's E-mag have level 10? Level 10 will cost you a bit of efficiency, possibly the ULT also (not sure about that)...
