Fuel economy continued...
I drove a little more last night and my MPG is now up to about 18 or 19...
That's with all highway. As I drive it more I'm expecting a change for the better.
It seems like when I'm in boost, not flooring it, but just accelerating maybe up to about 5lbs, the realtime MPG screen says 7mpg maybe up to 11mpg...
It *seems* like it didn't do that pre GIAC, then again, it could just be part of the program...
I'm thinking about ordering a MAF just because that seems to be the root of all evil anyway, and I should start fresh and see if it does anything. I'm also possibly picking up vagcom soon
Thanks again for the help guys.

Hello Again checked my data
Yesterday I made a run to VW dealer for a temp sensor for my daughters Passat. Tried my mileage check to be sure I gave you good data.
Results were slightly better better than I quoted. 11 miles of interstate at a constant 69 mph on cruise yielded 29.1 mpg with ECU in APR 93 mode. Ambient temp was 55 dgrees.
Good luck in finding your problem.
