I got so much power out of it, it almost scared me and it left a huge cloud of smoke. The 120 aggressive is noticeably better  . This was definitely worth the investment for me.
I bought a new tank of gas last night before the chip (3.5 miles on the tank). While I'm not sure of the lie-o-meter's accuracy, it shows 21 mpg this morning in spite of a little dogging, 10 city miles for the test drive, and a 35 mile drive to work at 80mph  . Previously I would get about 18mpg at 65 (17.5 on the lie-o-meter, and hand calculated 18). Most of my driving is highway miles with about 280 miles per week on the highway and 35 city miles over the weekends. I can't wait to hand calculate this tank!
Thanks Diane and Jody!!! |
