Does it have a misfire? And CEL's? I can't help you if you just tell me it has poor fuel economy and it runs like **** above 2k. There are a lot of things it could be.

check the codes, even if the light goes off, as long as you dont reset the ecu it has them stored.

then look at the FAQ at the top of the page that says "ecu codes"
