I don't know how accurate Mikes app is but on the first page of this thread it estimated his upgraded wheel HP at 389 which some stock S6s have dynoed at that.

It states 15% better fuel economy. As yet, I have failed to see any difference whatsoever.
The power difference is very noticeable though.

I put my chip on last night and my car just drank gas! But yes the slight power increase makes me smile lol so it's a wash.

It will probably get better when the new wears off and you're not on the throttle all the time.

piggyback chip compared to a ECU tune has its benefit of leaving no trace. But everything can't be perfect, what is disadvantage of the chip compared with ECU tune?

Wasn't too bad of an install actually, although I agree with others that the instruction manual isn't the greatest.

I didn't pocket dyno anything (mostly because I don't know how to use it or trust it). The additional power is noticeable (by butt-dyno and sound-dyno). I might drive it a few hundred miles so I'll know more about the fuel consumption later.
