is that normal or is my chip messed up. it seems like the gas just spills out when i'm under hard acceleration. under very light driving, shifting before 3,000rpm, i ony managed to get like 200 miles maybe 210 because i didn't want to push my luck.

Default You should be getting more. Don't blame it on the chip it could be something else causing the

problem. I think most of us have actually seen improvements when adding the chip.

Default 450 is nutz, I think I may have squeezed out 350, typically 300

of course, this all depends on when someone fills up. When the gas light first goes on, there's typicaly about 30 miles remaining on the trip computer and then another ~40 after that, so there's 70 extra miles that some people may not be using while others do.

Default how many gallons of gas are you filling up with?

if it's only 11-12, then 210 sounds about right. And this means you're not using about 5 gallons in your tank.
