If you are interested in performance, an intake is a winner. If you are interested in improved gas mileage, adjust your driving habits.

Well I just drove from California to North Carolina and I have a Megan Y-pipe, JWT Pop Charger, and Apexi exhaust. Now I had my Z weighed down with TV, Xbox, Cloths, dishes, etc. The first time I made the trip I got 26.7 on the highway. Went I went back I got 28.1 (With the mods). If you ask me the parts will save you gas. But once you hear the wistle.....Trust me the gas saving will go down : )

+1...any breather mods will increase your MPG theoretically...but you give it more gas so it kind of evens out On the highway though I believe it will make a difference.

I second that. Add on the exhaust after that...Might gain 1 or 2 more.
