  • Free Ram Air Gas Mialege

    Ok so I did the free ram air thing, and the PVC bellow. Now I noticed I was avergeing alot more miles per gallon before I did this. Has anyone else noticed an increase or decrease in mialege after the mod??

    The car is a Y87 package and is all stock except for the Ram air set up. I also have the stock paper filter in the air tray.

    How do I get my miles per gallon back?

    Anything that makes your car run more efficiently (headers, catback, intake, port and polish anything) will increase you gas mileage.

      It should help your mileage...

      either there is something wrong with your car or you are "giving it too much gas"

        after any mod i usually get worse gas mileage because i am usually throttle happy, but taking long car drives to school i noticed a huge improvement with my mods.

          With those two mods, I noticed about a 2mpg gain.
          Actually, that was with injector cleaner too. Couldn't have come at a better time. [img]smile.gif[/img]

            Would forgetting a step cause the bad mialege?

            I forgot to cut the plastic underneath the filter tray, infrom of the ac condenser.

              You won't be getting any cold air then, just a bunch of hot air from around the engine. Without that one step it's not even FRA. May or may not affect the mileage.
