Yes, more air+more fuel= worse MPG

 

[Meat1990]

So this mod is going to lower the mpg a little? how noticable is the extra added power?

 

[incipio]

Eh, very slight. It's not like OMG FEEL THE POWER! But after I found I didn't have one, did it to a buddies car.

Slightly noticeable power increase.

Just did it this afternoon. I definitely like the sound now.. one thing though, when I started up the car I let it sit for a couple minutes and the A/C was on and then I pulled out of my driveway. When I came back I saw that there were wet streaks on my driveway and on the street where I turned. It didn't smell like anything so I'm thinking it's just water. Any ideas?

That's just your A/C condensation. Nothing to worry about. If you think it's something else, just sniff it or put your finger in it.
