Steve.
well i did some quick calculations and worked out for every £50 i am spending on fuel i could be saving £25 of that back with closed loop

right then, to makie the money back from the chip i would need to fill up 10 times, which is approx 3000 miles.

so maybe 6 months ish.

have recently started driving the car to work too, so will be racking the miles up quicker from now on
Do you think you will save that much fuel

Mines on Greens, T34 etc and get about 23mpg local driving and about 29-30mpg on a run.
