Roc, Congrats to you and yourCEO!

I'm with most here: if it were that easy for mpg/performance inc., every mfg'er from KIA to Bentley would have them on!

Roc3b is on a distinguished road
Thanks to everyone, but we still have to go the Dr.

the wife works out five times a week and has been feeling a little wierd for the last three weeks her hormones are all over the place anyway...I remember the night in question so who knows...but I will not confirm until I hear it from a guy in a white coat....

So anyway.....I drove this SAV back from Dallas Tx, to my home in Ma. The whole way. 16.1-16.3 that was with cruise on 1748 miles. I drop this little dumb tin thing in the intake and I am getting mid 17's.... am I crazy? Am I seeing things? I dunno...I drive like I stole it all the time and that is what I am getting.

Then again. I filled the tank this morning on the way into the office. I will remove it and see what happens. There also might be a coincidence. I did take out the airfilter and cleared all the crap out of it.

I will say this...I changed the intake and the exhaust to a BORLA on the 99 Lexus LS400 and never got below 21.5 mph on a tank. Before that I got 20-20.6. Since I was driving 110 miles per day I was very happy with that. More air can't hurt.
