HI EVERYONE, just tried the tornado system for the air intake and have not noticed great results... possibly even worse gas mileage..</P>


I am about to change the wires and plugs to Bosch Platinum, </P>


but is there anything else that I could try? preferrably some cheaper mods first...</P>


how about a tonneau cover? or a drop-in K&amp;N</P>


Thanks, Merry Christmas, Pearce</P>

you'd notice better results from a drop in K and N filter than you would with the Tornado, but you should go with the whole K&amp;N air intake kit. Tonneau cover is going to help out cuz then the air wont hit the tail gate while you're driving. Well good on your Christmas presents, I'm probably going to get money, helps out in the mod department<IMG src=smileys/smiley20.gif border="0">.</P>
