What kind of fuel mileage are you getting? For those who have had it installed for some time... I'm getting 16.8mpg in my 2014 JGC without this

Brian - Sorry, I really didn't track it before and after that closely. I wish I could answer, but can't. I can say that you should be able to install it on your own. It also sounds great!

I put one on my 2013 JGC about a year ago. I have noticed a small increase in gas mileage. I drive 50/50 highway and city. I get about 18 mpg. When I get a BG Fuel treatment with my oil change it bumps it another mpg to about 19 mpg. I drive about 30 -50 miles a day on the interstate (4 days a week) and 15 miles a day in the city (7 days a week).

I get a little over 2 mpg more with in town and highway mix (i have to take the highway to get to the city)
2011426
At any given time 85% of my driving is city and I get 18.5-19 mpg. This has been consistent since I've installed the intake. I don't have a before/after comparison because it was installed only a few days after the purchase of the vehicle.

I can get about 17.9 in city in the mountains, and I like the sound so I rev it alot, but without reving it I got right at 20. Heading down the mountains of nc to the coast I actually averaged out 27 and 25 back up. Not bad.

I have a 99 Silverado 1500 5.3L and i was getting 18 MPG. However i put a 6" lift with 35" tires on it. My MPG dropped down around 13. After i put the programmer on i usually get 15 MPG driving conservatively. However, after i perform a oil and oil filter change, and clean my K&N; air filter i will get a high 17 MPG for several fill ups then it starts dropping to 15.

I also have a Dodge with the 5.9 Cummins, stage 2 cold air intake with a straight pipe. We must have identical trucks, but mines an 05. All I can say it that I ran the smart on performance which adds 100hp to your 325 making it 425hp, and boy does it make a difference :) (ran it on performance for about a year) . With that being said I just changed my trans last week, lol. Got a complete rebuild all heavy duty parts for 2500$, with the dodge tranny you will probably be doing the same thing. Also, I'm 33 so I didn't do a whole lot of "beating" on the truck. Just your average race hear and there. ;)

I cannot speak for your engine, however with my 5.3, even with the program now removed. I still have to run 93 octane to keep the truck from skipping. Didn't do that before the programmer. Get a custom tune. You'll Be much happier

I tied in my cell into my 06 ford escape and I realised a 20% increase in my gas milage. Emission were not tested however I know they were reduced also.This could be increased had I purchased the EFI version instead of the Carburetor version my increases could have been better. Buy the FI version. Also make sure you get a 4.0L kit or larger for you engine.

I have an 09 f150 with the 5.4. I've got the Edge CTS, a K&N CAI, throttle body spacer, and custom exhaust. If I drive with a light foot I see anywhere from 15-17 city and I've gotten 23 hwy with it set to "economy." On the hwy though, anything above about 70 MPH and you won't see that good. I did tow a 4 place Seadoo trailer from CA to Utah and was getting 19 mpg using the "towing" program. The programmer is compatible with the K&N intake. When you run the setup you can select between a couple different CAI's and it will configure the tune for it. Overall I'm pretty happy with it and seen 3-4 mpg increase on both city and hwy. Hope that helps.

I didn't notice it affecting mpg. I drove from Alaska to North Carolina. If it did affect it, it was a small amount

I went from 10mpg to 17 after using it. 2008 jk on 35's and 3.73 gears. 150-170 miles a tank to 250-280 miles per tank.

Worth it, if not for 2-3mpg gain, the performance enhancement (power)!! Of course all other upgrades aid to gains in mpg not just the mini max. Paid FULL price but think it was the best investment so far & I only had the diesel 4 weeks before seeking mini max. Good luck, great buy!

I live in a Chicago and I don't see any improvement in mpg in the city but on my trips to Detroit on the highway I might get 1 or 2 mpg improvement that I can notice. It was worth it regardless, makes the car sound better. Pair it with a decent exhaust system..even a pair of flow masters 40 or super 44 series and you will pretty good. U have this on a 13 2lt range camaro and I get good compliments.

on fuel economy mode no change in mpg (same) i run now 87 performance what a power diference lower end gets a lot of kick ,it realy shows serious power on 93 performance but i dont want to run 93 because of $ per gal so you'll be happy with 87,i got that unit just for towing i tow 6 k boat than it burns less fuel and pulls way better up hill here in new england would highly recommend cortex (only) nothing else ,my last truck dodge ram with flushpeg waist of money no change in power stay away cortex kicks a.. Buy it and enjoy it

Mine was turbo'd and straight pipe'd when I got it and I live in Texas so it was the only way I could pass emissions, as far as power gains I'm not real sure since all I did was a rebuild and sold it with 30 miles on the engine

Mine is on a 2001 Jeep Cherokee and it never got good gas mileage without the rack. Have the fairing on and have not noticed any drop in mpg. However I only drive this jeep off road for fun and not daily.

Yes, I am getting 1 or 2 mpg better than without it. For an upgrade this well priced, you can't go wrong really.

Yes my gas mileage increased 3.5 mpg at a the minimum. I probably would have gotten more but I have a heavy foot. I just sold my truck a couple weeks ago and no longer have any use for the superchip. If you want to purchase mine just let me know.... It's in perfect condition.

Yeah that is not normal and something is definitely wrong. When I installed it, it gave me a slight increase in mpg.
1346678
Can't help. Mine is gravity feed which is sufficient supply even when pulling a load and averaging 8 to 10 mpg. Sorry.
