Before I put my chip in I was getting 11 around town and 15-16 highway. After my chip I get 13 around town and 15-16 freeway.
Towing my boat is 9-10.

At last fill-up the trip odometer showed 214 miles and it took 16 gallons to hit full. 13.375 mpg and that tank took a serious flogging. Strangely, it gets the same mileage when I baby it, so from now on it's full throttle only.

Thumbs up

Actually most of my mileage is back an forth to the track testing chip programs and mods. With the throttle body, chip and filter I average about 15-16 mpg, highway 18 mpg city 13 mpg. 1/4- 8 runs= 4 gallons=
2 gallons per mile? and going to get worse.
