alright peeps, I JUST got back from Florida.
My MPG to Florida w.o Chip was about 26 MPG
On the way back to Texas WITH zchip it was at 24.4 MPG
So it did drop a little for me, but it wasnt bad.
On the way back I would acclerate 80-100 frequently to test out some top end in 6th gear in normal mode.
I couldnt really tell much of a difference..how fast does a stock RA accel. from 80-100?
Also my CEL seems to go off and on. and sometimes the car feels like its in sports mode when I slow down, cuz the gears start downshifting a bit rough in normal mode...not sure if it's because of the increased psi..? maybe someone knows..or perhaps TTP can fill me.
I can def. tell it accels quicker when i take off from 0. and its just by me sitting in the car..no instuments. I can post a vid of my going to 0-60 here and yall can compare perhaps?
and my car is just stock. only chipped and tuned.

going 0-60 in sports mode ( sorry for the crappy quality) and you can see the cel come on towards the end lol.
Heres my car in park afterwards and after it threw a cel...( the idle problems goes away after you turn it off and turn it back on..usually just does it have the overboost cel)
and here it is again after i turn it off..no high idle.

We can rescan in a more clear copy of the sheet tommorrow.
With our 2008 Mustang Dyno AWD, we have the cutting edge technology with most up to date firmware for precise measurement. There are many dynos that appear to print every sheet out at a 99% smoothing factor. Not ours.

Nice info. So now we kno the RA has potential. All Mitsu need now is to release a manual tranny and the car will have no restrictions.
EDIT: And better tires
