Z Tube And K & N ?????
IF I REPLACE MY STOCK FILTER AND TUBE WITH A Z-TUBE AND DROP IN K&N WILL GAS MILEAGE INCREASE ?? OR DROP?? MOST SAY THEY DO IT FOR SOUND ONLY,, NO REAL HP/TQ INCREASE.

not gonna do much for your gas mileage maybe 1-2 more mpg. it is mostly for sound, and your caps lock is on.

Get K&N's CAI. It's supposed to be the best one for our cars. I wouldn't mess with anything less than CAI

Post install mileage and performance will be insignificant, if any.
