Re: Unichip Tuner
Well, I checked the proper "white sheet", the Bill of Sale, and the info is correct for my mods. I feel the truck runs a little more aggressively , but seems to ping when under hard acceleration just before shifting to second (could be quality of gas, i suppose). Also, I have put a little over 200 miles on the programmed truck and it seems my mileage has decreased...I usually dont break 2k-2.5k on the RPM o' meter and I drive about 70-75mph on average.
I have larger than stock tires on my truck and the speedo is wrong and, therefore, the estimated MPG in the display is wrong. But, I do not think this would be the reason it dropped from an average of 13.5 to 12.4 or so. I will give it a little more time for the mpg, but it does seem quicker. The pinging has a me a bit nervous, though.
Oh, on a side note, I have alomost 40k miles on the truck...mostly highway (long dang drive to work) and when I hit around 30k miles my VSC, ABS, and one other light came on. We thought it was a pinched wire somewhere from an alignment in the front, but it turned out the truck needed the injectors cleaned because it was running uber lean (40 or so). I wonder if this programmer will allow the factory computer to read if the engine is running too lean or will it just tell the computer what it wants it to think. Just a thought.
