Default WOOT!!! Filled up this morning!!!

399.1 on 13.888 gallons = 28.73 MPG!!

I have never gotten mileage that was that good.

Last week I changed out my GIAC chip and put the APR back in. I don't know if it is the chip, "summer gas" or the nice weather that made the difference. My penchant for "spirited" driving has not changed.

I had been averaging ~ 24-26 mpg.

Default Could be a sampling error

Average it with the last tankful, or the next tankful. Don't want to burst your bubble, but you shouldn't get too excited (or too concerned if it is unusually low) with milage for just one tankful. Now if the pattern continues, then that's a good sign.

Default My commute is 650/week...

Plus regular running around during the day and weekends.

Three tanks since chip change, each has been getting better than the last. Previous tank was 27.4 mpg

Default lol, I can barely hit 200 on a tank now.

hoping that will get better over the next few weeks with a proper tune.
