Default WTF AVG MPG?
Prior to chipping APR and changingALL coil packs, My MPG avg = 12-14 city according to mydigital meter.

Now, it'sMPG avg = 17 city???

Would that be the CHIP or COILs or something else?

Mahalo!

im sure you knew of the down side to chipping so what did you expect ( more power = more fuel = more air = more spark ) all go hand in hand

wait you said prior to chipping you only got 12-14, now you have 17mpg. Well your getting better mpg, whats the problem? I guess changing the coils improved the efficiency.

Off topic but where in HI you from?

chips do give better MPG's but you still shouldnt be getting that low of a mileage unless you are mashing the floor pedal everytime you can. check your air filter, plugs, wires, oil and filter, and fuel filter.
