22.4 is pretty awesome. Is your great fuel economy mostly from the tonneau cover or mostly from the new air intake? Or by stock exhaust mode did you mean that you got the mileage before adding the air intake?
Airaid intake installed/electric exhaust cut-out closed. Guessin' the tonneau helped. My trip mission was optimum MPG.

EVIC switches to English (US MPG) or Metric (L/100KM) 22.4 US = 10.5L/100KM = 26.9 MPG CND...close to window sticker below!

You can change from Metric to Whatever the US measurement is called. Miles/KM I keep mine on miles because that is what I learned to drive on so I can relate mpg instead on L/100 km what the hell is that, you have to grow up with the metric system to really like to use it
I have had an Airaid on mine for about a month now. I have been through 3 tanks of gas and my mileage (according to the EVIC) is the same as it was pre CAI. My driving is city, however, it is mainly freeway from home to work. That trip is around 15 miles one way. Before the CAI, I was getting around 15 mpg. Since the CAI, it is about the same. If I keep my foot out of it, which is hard because the new exhaust note is cool, I think the mpg will increase. I'm still on the fence with the CAI. I haven't taken a long distance freeway trip yet, so I expect I haven't seen all the advanatages the CAI will provide. Also, I am having a difficult time deciding if there really is a performance increase. There probably is, it just isn't a clear night and day difference.
