I have not even run 1 take of gas through my jeep since installing the superchips, however I started with the 93 performance tune and it seems much better then stock with the 35's. Maybe I will try the towing tune and see if that runs any better, i never even thought or heard about trying that.

I've been running the 87 tune as well. Maybe .6-.8 mpg increase but that's it. The throttle feels better though. I'd be curious to see what everyone is running vs. the mpg they are getting. Hmmmm.....I hear a poll question.....

There is another Superchips thread, right here on the very first page, that is currently at 154 pages. There is a small chance that you might find what you are looking for there...

You are getting 22-25 in a modded JK!?!

I managed 23 once with the stock 28" tires and zero mods. Only been able to manage 20 since doing what I have.

PS: I don't have a chip yet

Wow, sounds like someone got a little sand in his man-gina...


You're probably right though, it's much better to have 20 or 30 of the exact same thread running than for people to actually spend a few minutes reading.

Cool man, whatever.

I am looking for some specific info and not "initial impressions" of it.

If others would like to contribute some relevant info on the settings you are running and performance and mpg benefits, that would be great.

I have ran the 87 Octane tune, the 91 tune, and currently the mileage tune. Not much difference imo. I might try the towing tune this week and see if I like it.
