I too have 35's and a 6 speed tranny. Mileage and power were very acceptable around town and while wheeling. Then I took a trip to the mountains.... On long uphill highway pulls it really sucks. I already have the airaid and magnaflow. Perhaps the hypertech might be the trick.

I found that the Hypertech really helps low speed driveability, throttle responce is improved, an accurate speedo is a real plus, 5th gear is a lot more useable (similar to what 4.88s would be in 6th), but I'm still going with 5.13 gears

I am noticing that mileage has gone down a little bit but I have been in town all weekend. I will know better with a little more time.

Well 2 weeks later and my mileage is back where it was stock. Still very pleased with my 16-17 mpg.
