What you've done looks great and the car has to be exciting.

Out of curiosity what are your rpms at 60 in 6th? Have you experimented with changing up the sti drive stuff?
60mph in 6th gear is around 2300rpm

Ever since i got the torque app, i played around the 3 different modes to see what affect they have on MPG. Driving on a flat freeway, foot steady, i would turn the knob to the 3 different modes:

Intelligent mode - eco mode gets the highest mpg.
Sport mode - mpg instantly drops by 3mpg vs "I" mode
Sport # mode - mpg drops by 5mpg vs "I" mode
