For Element owners, what was your gas mileage improvement? Thanks!

Hardly any gas mileage improvement. You could only notice a slight improvement on performance.

It appears to help gas mileage a little bit. I was getting 13.7 miles/ gallon in my 15' Dodge Journey and now I'm getting 14 and some change. Its miniscule, but does improve it. Hope this helps.

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 thought I might have seen a 1 mpg increase in the early months, but now I'm not sure if that was maybe due to something else. I haven't really seen anything that would indicate a significant decrease, either.Probably I'd say if there is a difference it's not much more than 1 mpg either way. I do mostly drive the truck around town, though and when I do take it on longer trips, I get away from using CA gas, which usually increases my mileage regardless of anything else due to lower ethanol content.

You can definitely feel the shifts are quicker and firmer. The biggest difference by far is the extra 100 HP and torque. It absolutely is the best mod I did for my 02 F350. Gas mileage went up about 5% too. Not much but when it turns your truck from docile behemoth to a sports truck AND gives better mileage it is a win win.

Lisa I bought the tuner to go on a 2006 Chevy 3500 Express van. I pull a 30ft car trailer with it. I have had it for a month or two. I have seen a gas mileage improvement of 2 to 3 miles/gal. Which I drive long distances. It does improve the power and fuel economy. If you drive a lot a mile or two per gal is a great help.

The fuel mileage is all dependant upon your foot.... Before I got this car I had a Honda Fit which averaged 25 mpg after getting the K&N; on this car I could beat that mileage with almost double the engine and weight as long as I have a light foot on the pedal! But if you are having fun with it obviously your fuel economy will be considerably less. So I e

I have an '06 LJ with a 6 speed manual and 8" lift. I noticed a definite increase in power-maybe 10%. Gas mileage unfortunately stayed the same, even after exhaust and air intake tweaking.

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.

You may get 1 or 2 mpg better but its not a guarantee. Mostly depends on how you drive, how long and often you idle the truck and also fuel quality.

I have an automatic and by using the 87 Octane tune I improved my mileage by about 4 or 5 mile per gallon. Plus it performs much better as far acceleration/much peppier. Also went to a larger tires and wheels re-calibrated for the new height and it corrected the speedometer. So everything I did was an improvement over stock, so I would say it would help with a standard also, but not totally sure.

Mpg won't really increase to make a huge difference. My silverado went up by maybe .5 mpg that's it.

I got the 12 oz because my car is smaller and since I don't like to go below half a tank, I put the Techron in before filling it at half a tank and did it every 2nd to 3rd fill up, depending on how low I was. I found that with some gases (lower rated ones like Pilot, etc) I got much better gas mileage right after I put it in and it got a little worse by the third half tank fill up. By the end of my trip, I was making sure that I put it in every other fill up to keep my mileage up. I averaged about 25.2 over all, with my car packed. When not using the Techron, it would drop down to about 20-22, so to my way of thinking, it was worth it. When I go for my oil change, etc, I will ask them what my fuel pump looks like just for the additional info. I hope this helps you!

Yes. Thats what i drive. I did the fuel saver tune and get roughly another 2 mpg. But I also have an intake, throttle body spacer, and an exhaust. So instead of the stock 18 mpg highway im at 23 mpg.

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).

Gas mileage didn't really change but it does seem to have more power. More in throttle response than anything.

Intake is on my son's 2000 Integra and he did notice improved gas mileage and quicker pick up.
