short ram questions

so i added a short ram to the G. it does sound really good especially under heavy acceleration. Couple questions though.... the gas mileage has gone SOUTH quickly even with just normal driving. also when i get on it hard i get the smell of exhaust inside the car. i didnt notice these 2 issue with the stock airbox.

That's weird. I've never heard of either, especially the smell. As far as the mileage, did you make sure to reset the ECU? Try disconnecting your battery overnight.

When I had a popcharger on my G, the mileage went down as well. I just disconnected the battery overnight. I drove really conservative for the next couple of days and I got waaayyy better mileage after the ECU 'learned' the driving style
