The chip is supposed to increase it, but then your foot will definitely get into it, and then it will drop like a rock once you start having fun with it.
So, to conclude, get a chip, watch your mpg drop and your rpm guage increase.

I must really be driving my car hard if you are supposed to get 27-28 mpg. I only average about 20 if that!!! I get about 290 miles on a tank. And thats pushing it.

Yeah, holy **** @ 27. Maybe if you're driving like a half-dead grandma.
