There is nothing else for me to add. Marc has well presented the facts in his posts. Irrespective of what you get on paper from a dyno, physical performance always talks. The only two things I can offer above what has been tabled already is that it's fun and you need a decent budget for gas as the car consumes it quicker than a fat kid on a Smartie.

Ha, I've happily accepted that, it's certainly about how much you're in boost. With my increased fuel of 10% I suppose my mileage has gone down that much...

Just to clarify, do you mean the fuel economy is worse because now that it's making so much more power and is so highly addictive, you find yourself going WOT a lot more? Or do you mean even driving it normally it consumes more fuel than a stock RS6? If the latter let me know because if driven normally that tune should actually get ~1 MPG more than stock.

I'm glad to hear you're still enjoying her!

Lead foot. Have had other gremlins with sensors and running rich, but as you well state, that has nothing to do with the tune, and merely to do with worn out parts. Punched it yesterday in fact and couldn't see the car behind due to cloud of smoke..... yikes. Sigh. Guess I know what I'm going to be doing this weekend. ha
