I just installed an aFe Power Stage 2 air intake (short ram with heat shield) and just on my commute to work I noticed my 60 mph cruising MPG went from around 40 mpg avg to about 44 mpg avg. Plus, it seems that my acceleration mpg went up, though it's hard to tell. FYI I shift around 3000 rpm, so by no means do I attempt to maximize FE when accelerating. I keep an eye on my numbers to get a better idea of the improvement. PS it does seem like power has increased too.
