Hmm, i customized for my local conditions and well.. It doesnt quite match up. Im getting better gas mileage than it says i should get but with Stg 2 LegacyGT shouldnt i really be getting worse? Do the Stg 2 improvements (UP/DP/Catback/Tune) actually improve gas mileage? I wonder...

Yes stage 2 does. It has to do the fact that you don't have to step on the gas so hard now :gap: Higher boost at lower RPM is better than lower boost at Higher RPM. Many of the folks over at clubwrx.net with Stage 2 have gotten between 3-5 MPG better after going stage 2.

also realize any ECU remapping will probably lean it out at points and give you better fuel economy
