Default Loss of MPG need help.

Ok here goes…I have already done the exhaust, intake, wheels and tires. Question 1 is what Computer Module would you recommend? Question 2 How much is my speedo and odometer off by going with 1 inch taller tires?

At first I was thinking about going with the Unichip but it won’t give me the changes for the taller tires. What about the Hypertech Programmers?
Any info…?

Your speedometer will be about 3% off. So if you drove 100 miles, you actually traveled 103 miles.

As for your fuel economy dip, which gears do you have? If you have 3.21's, thats to be expected. Putting a hypertech or the like may give you a bit better fuel economy.
