2 part air filter question!

k, which will provide me with better gas mileage? a k&n drop in... or an injen cold air? im looking for better mileage here, not performance...

also, how much noise does the injen make when it sucks in air?

Injen = better gas mileage and pretty loud when you stomp on it, normal driving conditions its not too bad

I have a K&N Drop in (2.2/2.4) if you're interested

K&N will net around 2 mpg increase, Injen 2-3.

You could get a higher flowing exhaust too.

Also look for a reflash for the computers in our cars soon. There should be one for performance and one for gas milage.

I emailed Tune Time performance.

They said they are working on reflashes for our cars.

No one gave me an ETA though .

Also judging from their other products I'd expect to pay no less than $400.

$400 for better gas mileage, there is no way you would recoop that money
