Default Re: Air box interchnage& performance upgrades

Funny thing about me evidently, I never purchased mine thinking it was going to give me great gas mileage. I brought it because I loved the body style and wanted one from the first day I heard they would be sold here in the USA.

I'm with Crewzin on the gas mileage subject. I just don't know how you can tell a a 2 mpg difference One tank full I'll show getting 17mpg and a couple later it will be 23mbg and next time it will be 19. It all depends on how many highway miles vs city miles I drive, how much I put my foot into it when taking off.

I brought an Airaid Cold Air Intake. I've read from some that it gives better performance off the line. Maybe it does, maybe it doesn't. I'm not going to argue the point as I don't really care. I like the look when I raise the hood. I like the deep roar when I put my foot into it, even at highway speeds.

I brought mine to have fun, nothing more, nothing less!
