Someone posted that he saw an mpg gain from this on a forum dedicated to the Focus...took me a long time to try it due to believing it had little chance of working. I already had what I thought was a good flow...don't exactly run the car a full throttle a lot...taxing the intake system. You can buy these cone filters at parts stores for not too much (the off brands)...installing it like I did means it is easily reversible.

All the brilliant analysis as to why it won't work is FUNNY. Just like watching people TAKE A DUMP.

cons? Noisy if you floor it...not the best filtering in a dusty area?

I wouldn't want to encourage anyone to improve their mpg...it's like pushing drugs.
