im going to be Telion chipped within this week i already have come to terms with the fact i would have to spend more at the pump for more power... but i am thinking that if Master Telion changed the set up it would sacrifice some power for better fuel economy so i would think that it all depends on what everyone, wants power or better fuel consumption, but if we can get both im sure the ecu masters can figure out something to help us guys out


Ps thanks guys for sharing this info cnat wait to see the dyno results

i don't think its that big of a trade off.. if you ever look at the 3.2 vs 3.5 thread i made, when i dyno'd the sr5guys chips and my tuner tried adding more fuel or less fuel via my apexi fuel controller, i actually lost power skewing from the stock fuel map.

I think you're doing an awesome job on this comparison!
It's great to see them not only compared, but compared in-depth--taking the many facets of the performance search into consideration.

I'm just jealous that I can't do the same thing for my car due to the lack of chips out there! =[

That seems to be somewhat of a contradiction... the data provided for SR5's guy seems to be both more powerful and economic than stock though.

I'm not sure, actually. I don't have an EGR but my mileage seems to be pretty spot-on with the original specs provided.

yes it does because it recirculates exhaust gas into the engine to help in the combustion process and makes it more efficient however by circulating hot gas it hurts your hp since you want the coldest possible air going into your engine.
