Have you added any "lead" to your right foot since you downloaded your Smarty??? It's real easy to get a negative first impression from the Smarty after you feel the improved "throttle response" and "low end power"!!!!!!! I have the Smarty Revo. I run default settings on SW5. Works for me. Even with winter fuel I've averaged 18-19mpg running to a fro from Missouri last month.Check to see if your Smarty didn't come with a "Frankenstein" right foot weight that you never intended to install!!! Hehehe!!

That's the weird thing. I have only gotten on it three times since I put it in and haven't recorded the mileage. I drive by psi and it's hard to keep it low now. I got reading about too much timing in another post so I bumped it down to SW 4 and for the first 50 miles it seems to drive much better. Before the lie o meter was saying about 16.3 which is usually about 1.5 to 2 off. After the switch the first 50 miles at 75, it shows 19.4. I'm not sure if this will stay higher or not but I have high hopes.

My lie-o-meter varies from 8% to 33% off, so you can't really use them as an indicator. What was the timing set at on SW5? If you are seeing more boost than normal you are driving it harder. I would try SW3 TM2, TQ 1 or 2, RP1, WG Off and see what you get. With advanced timing your boost goes down per hp, and with advanced timing your economy goes up. That is if you can keep your foot out of it. I would pick a setting and drive it normal for a while, it's not uncommon for people to drive harder than they think when enjoying the new power.
