Default SuperChip Flash Paq

I recently bought the Superchip Paq for my '05 Dakota. I've never been a Moder to any extent. However I do like some performance. Anyway my Dak is a 4.7, Quad, Auto, and I love it. I spent 25 years working on Fords for dealers. I still hold two ASE Master Certifications (One for cars & Lt Trucks, the other for heavy trucks., plus Fords Master Certification. That being said, I love my Dodge.

Any of you guys or gals out there that have bought the Flash Paq, have you noticed an increase in MPG even when you went to the performance tune? My Dak went from 14-15 to 17.5. And it seems to drive even better.

I had purchased the Plugin JET Power control Module years ago, but I never felt it did anything for the performance. Anyone want one?

My truck did not get any gains like that. Less than .5 mpg improvement but I just took it as standard deviation. I still enjoy the change in my 06. I keep meaning to test tune the wifes Durango, but it has about a year now and still haven't.

I love the performance gains, but my mpg stayed about the same.

I got one for mine not to long ago, resized the tires {31's} I use the milage setting and get almost 19mpg, if I use the "performance" tune do I have to run 91 octane or can I use good ol reg gas 87 octane?
