chip throwing off mpg computer

My wife took x to mothers this weekend and computer read 24.7 mpg. This seems impossible since before I put my TS 75hp chip in the best mileage I got was 16 on hwy. Has anyone had their chip screw up the mileage computer? guess I'll know when I check the mileage manually through gallons used.

Re: chip throwing off mpg computer

Yep !!! Chips, Hypertech, etc., totally screw up the MPG, yet at least the Hypertech (and maybe the others) still is as accurate on miles remaining as it was before. Go figure. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shrug.gif[/img]
