Default real world mpg

hi all,
i have been reading the forums since november when i picked up my used a3 2.0t. i have found great info on alot of subjects. my question is what are the mpgchanges, if any, when you chip the car. i dont want to get into the whole chip question but i thought if i asked people could give me some real world numbers. thanks

My average MPG went up .5 mi after chipping.

I drive mostly city streets (75%), a little freeways during the week(25%, a little more on weekends). I'm now at 22.9MPG.

I have the APR stg 1 and honestly it hasn't affected mileage in the least. 75% highway at 75-80mph and 25% suburban/city, I average 24.6 mpg, which is exactly where I was pre-chip, and I'm definitely pushing the engine a little harder since chipping.

My real world MPG is actually increasing since I chipped my TDI. Too early to give a reliable number, but it's in the plus column.

Mine is unchanged overall. However, I can affect the mileage more than stock if I run it hard through the whole tank, but by only 2-3mpg.



Cheers!
