Over 51,000+ miles I have averaged 32.65MPG, as documented in my owner's journal thread. An increase of 10 to 15% would mean an increase in mileage of 3.2 to 4.8MPG.

Given the current focus on fuel economy requirements, I just don't see any way that Toyota/Subaru would have left that on the table if a simple ROM change would have upped it, even if it meant sacrificing performance a bit particularly given that straight-line, top speed performance was not their focus with the 86 platform.

Visit my Owner's Journal where I wax philosophic on all things FR-S
