Default Tweaks For Better Economy?

With luck I'm about to be the owner of a "why did it have to be silver, everything else about it is what I was looking for!" 940 2.0 LPT.

I'm wondering if there are any known tweaks to improve mpg. Not worried about outright performance, I already have a nippy throwable car for those moments.

I spotted some people selling chips claim their maps give "more economy", but I'm wondering how true that is? I'd have thought manufacturers would sacrifice performance for fuel efficiency...
