Re: 06 chevy
not really you can try after market tuners but it will void any warranties on it

Re: 06 chevy
Hypertech + AEM Brute Force CAI + Stock tail pipe removed made about 2 mpg difference on my roommates truck. Its a chevrolet so you won't need the warranty.

Re: 06 chevy
I tried lots of things on my 05 SS and nothing worked except driving at the speed limit and keeping my foot out of it. I finally just sold it cuase I was tired of poor milage and payments.
