You are not going to get better mileage if you have a heavy foot and like to here the BPV and intake. A lot of times mods make you get worse mileage because you are enjoying the car more.

Yeah...what he said. Since you said you're drivng slow you should get like another mile per gallon from having the intake. Better flow like that usually means a slight MPG gain.

You probably won't see any change in MPG. Most people mod their cars to go faster, you pretty much end up stepping on the gas more/harder to feel your gains, this=less MPG. If you drive like grandma then no problem seeing better mileage, but then what's the point in modding?

+1. lower mpg for modding is like being pissed for running out of astroglide sooner.

I noticed no difference at all in milage between the factory intake, the Cobb SRI and the CP-E Nano. I thought there would be since changing intakes added almost 2 mpg on my last car, but there wasn't.
