technically, yes. As for anything truly insightful to gain MPG? No. Really, what's to gain? 1-2 MPG? 3 at best? Simple math will shed light on the very fact that dropping $300-$1000 on CAI, exhaust and tuners would take years, often beyond the intended usage and life of the vehicle for an owner, to see his/her savings to even cancel out the "investment" of the parts applied to gain said MPG. why "investment"? Because very few automotive dollars are an investment. It's all losses. But you can't put a market price on fun.

From 13 to 15 mpg over 125000 miles at $3.50 per saves about $4,500 From 15 to 17 mpg over that same 125000 miles nets about $3,500 in savings I'm willing to bet there are one or two here that have put (or will put) 125,000 miles on their JK while they own it and will recover the cost and more if prices go higher than they were. At $1.75 per that is still $2,250 or $1,750 For me, if I drive 75 mph I get measured 16.5-16.9 and at 65 I get 18-19 measured (calculated by miles travelled and gallons consumed using Billy's not so excellent Excel) so I just decide what is more important getting there sooner or with a couple of extra $$ in my pocket. Now top off or on the trail my mpg is crap, but I don't care, it's where I choose to spend my money 
It's a Jeep, MPG shouldn't even be part of the conversation Edit: I used to get better mileage, but tires and a mild lift beat that down some

Flashcal superchipi
. Case low ratio. There is no transmission shift function that I can find. It does state that the axle ratio is used to improve the Jeeps 2wd shift points by modifying the axle gear ratio.
Does anyone know the correct setting for calibrations? I don't want to play cat & mouse with all these
Different settings. I have the factory setting for 3.73 axle ratio set. I didn't even check the other setting ,don't want to mesh up everything. Any help is appreciated.

i don't have the procal but I do have the flashcal. It took me 3 times to get the speedo correct and I have it calibrated at 31.5 inches for 33.5 Nito's. Now isn't that crazy; but it registers correct. The flashcal will let me set axle ratio, t.case high ratio, t
