I read alot of reviews that said that when you just use the filter that it increases gas milage. Has anyone noticed a difference in mpg with this ?

Not at all. If you're looking to increase gas mileage you will be disappointed. If you want power and sound, you'll love it.

I live in a Chicago and I don't see any improvement in mpg in the city but on my trips to Detroit on the highway I might get 1 or 2 mpg improvement that I can notice. It was worth it regardless, makes the car sound better. Pair it with a decent exhaust system..even a pair of flow masters 40 or super 44 series and you will sound pretty good. I have this on a 13 2lt RScamaro and I get good compliments.

If you are just adding an air filter on you not need to worry about fuel management. If you change your exhaust as well as your air cleaner then you need to remap.

My gas mileage definitely improved. More power and torque as wellI'm in canada so we measure in litres/100km. I went from 17-18 litres/100km down to 13-14 litres/100km. About 20-25% fuel savings. Biggest difference is in city driving and towing. They're are a lot of different models, make sure to get the right one for your tuck

I noticed no difference in mpg or any hp changes. The old exhaust tip just was way to ugly for me. However the new exhaust tip looks so much better and gets the look I wanted!

I thought I might have seen a 1 mpg increase in the early months, but now I'm not sure if that was maybe due to something else. I haven't really seen anything that would indicate a significant decrease, either.Probably I'd say if there is a difference it's not much more than 1 mpg either way. I do mostly drive the truck around town, though and when I do take it on longer trips, I get away from using CA gas, which usually increases my mileage regardless of anything else due to lower ethanol content.

The company claims it will increase gas mileage but I am not sure most of the time when you increase horsepower you loose a little in fuel mileage.

Gas mileage is possibly 1-2 mpg better. However, I mainly upgraded for improved performance, which is noticeable.

Lisa I bought the tuner to go on a 2006 Chevy 3500 Express van. I pull a 30ft car trailer with it. I have had it for a month or two. I have seen a gas mileage improvement of 2 to 3 miles/gal. Which I drive long distances. It does improve the power and fuel economy. If you drive a lot a mile or two per gal is a great help.

I don't know man. I didn't experience that when I used this filter. Maybe you did some really hard driving or perhaps there was already a lot of crud in the engine.

Katie you need to fill you gas tank and then add BG on top of that it will work its magic. You should notice the difference right away!

I have only seen slight improvement not mpg, maybe 3-4 mpg more. The big improvement comes from horse power and torque.

Hello, it all depends on driving style. This definitely has the ability to increase MPG. Its not a huge amount though, so justifying the purchase simply for MPG might end up being a wash.

on the bottle it says add to 4 gallons of fuel in tank... around a quarter tank... drive for a few miles then fill up.... I used this product and drove my car on the highway doing 65 mph in one gear lower to increase engine rpm.... it worked great then I filled up with premium..... just follow the directions though that's all you can get the directions from the MR. Gasket website.

As far as both questions go I can't give you an exact number on both gas mileage and horsepower. I did feel an increase in power since the intake does make the engine breathe a hell of a lot better. As far as gas mileage goes I did see an improvement but couldn't tell you how much as I didn't pay attention to that after I put it on. AS far as the intake itself. It sounds amazing.

Nope! I made the mistake. I put this on a 5kw generator with 11hp motor. The flow with gravity feed is such a slight trickle that the unit starves for gas in just a few minutes. It's obviously for a system with a fuel pump. It does however appear to be better made than similar filters I've used on pumped systems so the few I bought won't go to waste.

Yes, you will notice a benefit in fuel mileage and a small benefit in performance. I've used K&N; filters on every car I've owned for the last 20 yrs! You can't beat the price on Amazon for a drop-in filter.
