So i'd suggest trying an Open element style intake or a cold air intake.

Exhaust what i would do is put a flowmaster or two flowmaster 2 chambers under it with turndowns aat the rear axle (I can't garuntee these will work because others on the forum will contradict it but I'm just saying what has worked for me)
Just used the "thanks" (Nut-hugger) feature for the first time. This post was worthy of it.

Apparantely, select contrarian members have taken it upon themselves to recommend the opposite of what's widely accepted factually and anecdotally. They label aftermarket parts as something that appeals only to hardcore "tuners" aiming for peak horsepower with absolutely no regard to drivability or ricers who bolt on drag-inducing body kits with other aerodynamically inefficient items, completing the look with a protruding muffler resembling one off a school bus. Very stereotypical assumptions, indeed. But no, "performance guys" have it backwards: a "tuner" wants gas-powere, the "eco-dude" wants battery-powered ; they swap in a CAI/SRI, here they rock a WAI; some guy with a Civic puts a spoiler on, the other a "boat-tail"; yadda yadda...

Instead of blatantly ignoring what's been around for years because you have some sort of innate oppression against it, why not look into it as adamantely as you do for future concepts? It might just help you get that high MPG number you've been yearning for.
