If you do put one in, then keep and post good records of gas usage, and also watch for any change in driving habits that could result in fuel savings. I figure if they did work as advertised, manufacturers would make something like that part of the stock intake design.

Installed one yesterday. Feels a little peppier on the throttle (could be my imagination) but have only put on about ten miles. A friend put one in her Honda and her mileage increased 3-3.5 mpg.
