I picked my stuff up at Menards. You can make it any size and shape you want to fit the area. That whole box cost me less then $100 including the $45 filter. And about 2 hours of time.

The way you get better gas mileage now is that your incoming air is both turbulent and warm/hot. You get less air flow from turbulence, so you get less fuel, and the air that goes in doesn't need as much fuel because it'* warm and less dense than it ideally should be.

since gas millage and performance are both offshoots from efficiency the more efficient your engine the more power potential and more fuel efficiency. just depends on how heavy your right foot becomes, but if you put a true cold air on ANY car and drive the exact same youll see at least 1+mpg increase trust me ive put intakes on 5 different cars this month all same results.
hope im not coming across as a or anything im an energy sys engineering student so this stuff is my life lol
