    I'm new to subaru but I think their something wrong off a full tank I'm only getting 200miles with mixed driving. Also it has a slight hesitation in the Rev range. According to previous ownet it had a stage 1 remap by amd.


    Is their anyway of checking the map with out spending a small fortune and could their be any easy checks to get better mpg

    I don't mind the refueling just concerned with the hiccup in the Rev range. Also seen people putting their getting near the 300 miles to a tank
