once you find the chip update us and let us know if it hurts your gas mileage and if the horsepower gain is signifigant.

i plugged in the superchip tuner set it to performance. I noticed some power gain but my gas mileage dropped from 17 to 15. Could have been from stepping on the pedal too much testing it out. I added the cold air intake and after the PCM caught up after a couple tanks of gas, it rounded off to a nice 17.5 city and 22 highway (baby the gas). air conditioning is killing my gas mileage right now (back down to 16) along with major power loss. hope my v8 throttle body (waiting to arrive via ups) can help!
i have never tuned it up for best gas mileage yet.
