Ah, ok. I am only shooting for around 250whp in my 7 because my fuel economy sucks and I like to go on hour long drives on a regular basis. Right now with about 200whp I am getting about 16highway/10city, but a few things in my tune aren't right so hopefully I can get it a little better :D

I have to agree with the 10mpg and 250whp thing. That's horrible I hate driving my car since it gets about the same amount of gas millage but I make more power than that. Can it not be tuned better to get better fuel economy? I'm hoping to get better than stock after my tune which is possible. Gas prices are too high to be driving around like this.

Honestly, once my ignition gets sorted out, I will probably be closer to 13 city/18 highway. Part of my problem is a tiny ass turbo that is next to impossible to keep outta the boost. To get to 40mph and stay outta the boost while doing that takes about 15 seconds probably. Plus, even with a fully ported wastegate and a 7lb spring, the car will boost creep as high as 19psi :shock:
