i heard some guy got 2-3 mpg better with the exhaust. i dunno bout the air filter though. im gonna be doing those projects this summer when i get more money. i was supposed to do them this week but i spent it all on gas and more school supplies. but it all depends on how you drive it. see, if you really like the rumble from your exhaust, your gonna be stepping on it more often and lose MPG. i know i can refrain from that, so im getting the exhaust for sure, but if you cant, might as well not get it, you know? waste of money then.

Except for when I jump on it, my turbo increased mpg by around 1.5-2.

Where did you find an STS Turbo for $999? the lowest I've seen them for is around 3-4 Grand! With the combo I have I gained 2-3mpg
