use a 3" intake and the MAF needs to be at least like 4" from the filter.

stock ECU and xtremeboost didnt tune it, Jestr tuned it. Just find a local tuner that does and have him flash it for you to get it running, then after a few hundred miles at least, get it dyno tuned.

Are you sure you're not going downhill all the time?
How the hell did you average 63 mph. I'm assuming you reset the mpg gauge.
