Default 30mpg On Powerchip91!!!!!!

I've got the POWERCHIP GOLD 91 upgrade to my ECU about 15k miles ago. I have a total of 16k miles on my 6-speed '04 Crossfire. I usually get around 27-29 mpg on an average of 80% freeway / 20% street driving. This week, on the same average driving, same air-condition usage, I reached 30 mpg!!! My mileage read 390 miles; the gas tank took 12.65 gallons to fill up. I am hopeful, as I keep breaking in the engine, the 30 mpg will be more consistent. Needless to say, I am quite thrilled since the price of gas is and will continue to creep ever higher.

On another positive note, the speaker on the driver side door went out. I took the car to my dealer, he said no problem the repair/replacement is under warranty.

Been told the Crossfire will stop being manufactured. Quite fine by me. Makes it that more a collectable down the line...

Keep on firing...

PowerChip is an aftermarket chip for the car. www.powerchipgroup.com i believe. I have an upsolute custom tune and i have been around 29 lately. Before the chip, I was usually 24 - 26.

www.upsolute.com and also www.speedtuningusa.com for others.

I wonder why Powerchip refers to the 2004, 215 HP, 3.2 as an SRT-6? That sort of leaves me cold.
