IMO power never comes together with fuel efficiency. You can't have best of both worlds. Think about it!

unless its a vw diesel. performance chips for them usually increase torque/ hp slightly/ and fuel economy.
but thats turbodiesels so its a different ballpark.

These devices are nothing more than a resistor that tricks the ECU into richening the air fuel mixture. They do work to a certain extent, but at the expense of fuel economy.

The only power and fuel economy is usually a turbo. But you don't get all that power, AT THAT MOMENT, with fuel economy. Sorry....

They make your car feel more powerful by fooling your car into thinking you're at 100% throttle when you only have the gas pushed to 50% giving the illusion of extra power.
