Default Wow!!!!

Well, I just installed my CAI and power wire, and all I can say is wow. The difference in acceleration and peppiness is amazing!! And the sound from the intake is what a V-8 is supposed to sound like! Next, Rancho's all the way around.

YES, you are definently right... now heres the test. Try and keep the mpgs as high as they were before the intake

I can do it now, 17-18 mpg city and 20-22 hwy, but when I first put mine on... it was impossible, you might as well figure 15 avg mpg now haha just because of the lead foot syndrome!

LOL!! I know what you mean! You should see the looks I get when I step on it. It realy growls when you step on it! So, of course, that's all I do, because the sound is nice!!
