1500.
But I need a 2500. It was a spur of the moment purchase, I was tired of relying on my friend to haul my quads (since I had the G).. Hemi + diablo sport tuner + intake + exhaust =

Good gas mileage is only possible if you use your cruise control and don't install mods like pop chargers. Keeping up with your oil changes, using quality synthetic will also help in getting better mileage along with checking your tire pressure frequently. Also, try not to listen to the sweet sound of your exhaust which will destroy any hope of good gas mileage...

Wow I just realized the thread is still alive. My car has been away since late October due to me having a crash. Just got her back about an hour ago! I'm just happy to have a nice running car again! Anyway, I bought a ton of junk (test pipes, non rev up manifold, spacer) and since the accident I lost the ambition to install them. So I'll just keep the Z tube and K&N filter which I've had for years and just ENJOY the vehicle and keep her properly maintained.

I noticed a DECREASE in mpg on my wife's 05 G sedan when I put in a K&N dropin filter.
And, she was driving it so it wasn't me pushing it.
Called K&N and they said that they do not claim increase in MPG but performance.
So, I took it out and went back to paper filters (Napa filter = WIX, which are some of the best imho). In addition, like others here have stated, K&N doesn't filter very well.


Now, I looking at R2C filters for my coupe and possibly for the sedan. Might want to check them out.
