Can anyone verify a gas mileage increase with this filter assembly. I have a 2007 SE Sedan with about a 120,000 miles on it.

In my zxw 2005 2.0 , it makes a bit more noise, a bit more power, a bit more mileage (less restriction = better air intake). If you put the KNN instead of Fram, the effect will be more ... Cut of the old filter and you will understand... it's like trying to breathe trough a big pillow

Before installing I was getting between 27 to 29 mpg highway. After installing during a 3000 mile trip I averaged between 31 to 33 mpg. I used a fram filter with it. It was installed on a 2005 Focus

I installed this box/filter on an '06. Car had developed a rough idle. Did not seem to help. Took car in to a shop. There was a whole in a small hose that was only available from a dealer. $40.00 for the part. $270 to install. Was told that intake manifold had to be removed in order to replace hose. Neither replacement of filter or the hose showed any increase in gas mileage.

When I picked up my used 05 zx3 (76000 miles) it had an open filter from Steeda installed. I averaged about 30-32mpg. After installing this assembly I average about 32-34mpg but have done as well as 36mpg on my normal commute.

lol maybe like 1 mpg avg . another thing is lost bottom end power but gained mid -high. I guess its got something to do with how the comp is programmed for stock intake diff air /fuel mix. im goin to try programmer to see if mpg improves.

I own an 01 1500 5.9L and this was a direct fit up with no drilling needed. Biggest pain is where it attaches to the plenum, but that's dodges fault. After installed, mash the gas and you can hear it sucking up air! No mpg gains, but has a little more pep in the step. Hope this helps...

My 2010 honda civic averaged about 37-39 mpg on freeway going 75. I noticed a great increase in torque and acceleration. The responsiveness was a lot better too

I installed this 2 years ago. I never dyno tested. just by the seat of your pants dyno maybe slight performance increase, getting about 1 mpg better mileage. It was easy to install. I would not fit with the strut brace I had.

Not sure I just looked on AFE website and they only list it from 05-13. I would say if your intake looks like the same shape it should fit. I not I would wait till on comes out. The filters are great more throttle response and I saw a slight change in gas mileage. You won't be disappointed. just make sure you get the dry charge type element if you get one that is oiled it will cause problems with sensors not to mention screw up your intake system. Hope this helped

LisaI 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.

My 95 Integra/Acura had done 200,000km before I replaced mine.Fuel economy was really bad driving normally after a full tune,replacing all filters,leads,plugs etc.Replaced O2 sensor and had vastly improved economy straight away.My RPM"s were normal. Mine had no check engine light come on.Dont forget to reset CPU. Still have car as its so reliable.Best of Luck.

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

Well worth the money and the product does exactly what it states. Also keeping the stock tubes doesn't hurt the results. I added an exhaust, and a mass airflow chip and my total HE gains was about 68 HP. I have a 2013 300 with a 5.7 hemi. Gas mileage before was 13.8 and I can get the same while stepping on the gas. So it does help. If i drive my car normal I have increased my MPG by 4.3. Any more questions you can contact me directly at Justbecause246@aol.com.

Ultimately it depends on whether or not the air filter is the greatest air restriction in the car's system. My experience so far with several vehicles is that it normally is. If not, at least you will save on filter replacement over the life of the car.

There is a increase in mpg. Not a huge amount but noticable, although I've never done the math.

I have an automatic and by using the 87 Octane tune I improved my mileage by about 4 or 5 mile per gallon. Plus it performs much better as far acceleration/much peppier. Also went to a larger tires and wheels re-calibrated for the new height and it corrected the speedometer. So everything I did was an improvement over stock, so I would say it would help with a standard also, but not totally sure.

On the economy setting expect 1-2 mpg gain. I run the tow setting and get the same fuel economy as stock with much more throttle response. Take into account I have an 07 3500, 5.9, 6 speed manual

I didnt notice any change on MPG. I have a dodge ram 1500 5.7 and always get 12.9 around town and and roughly 17 highway. My tires are now a year old and look as good as when i put them on.

My 2007 Expedition has a 5.8L and we average between 10-15% increase. Driving habits make a big difference, when you get more performance you may drive harder because its more fun so your mileage may decrease.Check Hypertech.com for vehicle compatibility and charts on performance.

The company that installed my new system said that this filter would last one year. But when they came out to do an inspection after one year, the guy said that I should have changed the filter earlier. I now change the filter every six months. So far, that seems to be about the right amount of time.
