To me a CAI is neither a performance mod or a MPG mod, it is a helper mod or supporting mod. By its self you wont notice much more than the change in sound in the engine, the exhaust may get a little more of a rumble to it or slightly deeper tone, and the throttle responce may go up a little bit and thats it. The power gain on its own is only a slight increase, something that you will probably notice as a bit more pep from the throttle than anything. Mpg will go up with just the CAI, maybe 0.5mpg (+/-) though and thats pushing it.
With that being said though, in combination with other mods they can and will make a difference.
Do what the others have said and build your own, my only suggestion is that you invest in a GOOD filter, not some cheap one at autozone.

Check the Faq Section, link is at the very top of the page.
Check the to sticky threads at the top of the page, one is for Superchips and one is for Diablo.
It will increase over all power/torque, increase mpg, better the shifting, has different levels for mpg, towing, and performance, read and clear DTC's, Data log, 0-60 times... Read through the stickies at the top of the page.
True but where is the fun in that... its a truck, a heavy truck, it will never get "great" mpg... If you want great mpg buy a prius.
