SLP Cold nets 2 MPG Gain on 305 TPI

For those interested, I installed a SLP Cold Air last week and just tanked up for the first time since installing it and netted +2MPG.

I have not noticed any differance in low end performance from the SLP Cold Air, but it seems to increase some at the higher RPM's such as passing gear etc.

JWKbride:-Wait until you've used a few more tanks worth of fuel then see if you are getting any consistent change in the MPG. Depending on your driving style, traffic variations, city versus highway etc, your MPG can fluctuate greatly (as I'm sure you know).

Be sure to post an update in a month or so to let us know if there has been an improvement overall.

Best of luck.

Yep, I will keep an eye on it. I check my MPG every tank. Ive never gotten over 20MPG so a jump to 22MPG is a definite improvement and an all time high for this car under any road conditions.

Will continue to track and update next month with the results
