Very nice looking job! I think my PCM is in the way on my 99.

I have real bad compression from worn rings but I did see a mpg increase from going from a HAI to what is pictured.

hope you dont think that an intake will give you 10 extra mpg... and as said above, a heavy foot isnt going to help mpg either, no matter what 'gas saving' mods you have.

No, I realize that. I have looked at my car and am fairly confident that I can go get an off the shelf cool air pipe, some other misc parts, and a k&n cone filter and place that in my fender well. I need to know if this is going to make my mileage go up at all? I drive quite conservativley the majority of the time. I am just trying to figure out if this is worth the 100ish $ that it would take to do, if it isn't going to make much diff. I guess that I am looking for a definative answer before making the purchases. Thanks.
