Well, I've decided against using the Cobb Econo map for my travel. There are too many threads out there that basically say "don't do it!" The risk of detonation under boost in cold weather seems to be there. No thanks. There just isn't enough evidence out there that proves that the Cobb Econo map is safe, and my WRX isn't worth the risk.
Personally, I don't think it'll work any better than laying off boost anyway. A couple of days ago, I drove up to the suburbs of Chicago on Stage 1-91. All highway. I got about 60 or miles before the gas gauge even budged from full. Of course, the gauge is severely non-linear up at the top, but it still seemed good.
I will at least post my mileage for the trip when I return.
