Default 41k I think my b7 engine is now broke in 36mpg

well thought i made a math error but have found out in the area i drive in with minimal stop and go i can get 36 mpg. thanks to the tip i got on the forum a while back not to go over 2000 on the rpm gauge. please note after two tanks of gas getting this mileage when i had to kick the turbo in a large cloud of smoke will come out of the exhausts! still very pleased with my audi and love it. she will be 2 years old here in august. was getting normally 31-33 but for some reason getting better gas mileage. i did chunk out that phone book german air filter and put in a stp brand one for 12 bucks which is much thinner. i know i should have gotten a k&n right away but will throw this stp air filter out every 10k.

2000! Dude! That's barely even driving! I hope you at least go higher when you're accelerating.
