Hi,
Just applying the warm air intake will not necessarily improve your mileage.
For example, if you typically drive on the freeway/highway, then you need more power from the motor, and getting this means higher density air.
If on the other hand, you puttz along on the backroads, then the thinner air will yield higher gas mileage, but only if your going let's say less than 40 mph or so.
Jim.
