Damn. I like it. I like it a lot. The power gain feels almost as much as the CAI and Y-Pipe did to the stock engine. First and second gears feel a little 'faster', as in I am shifting sooner, but the real difference in in third gear and up. Best is on the highway, cruising in 5th gear. The car is much more drivable at higher speeds (80+), the engine feels much more at ease at those higher speeds, driving almost effortlessly. All in all, I'm glad I got it done, and recommend it to anyone who wants more power out of their car. But be ready to be without your car for a week...

haven't checked yet. I want to take an average over a couple of tanks, that's the best way (I was driving pretty hard this weekend - autocross, testing out ECU, etc). Want to make sure that it is taken from my everyday driving. I'll let you know...

Not here. Same milage. If i remember correctly, it doesnt change much below 3k rpm, so it doesnt affect milage there. Anything above 3k.. youre lead-footin it anyways..
