over the weekend i drove up to Ft Collins to a friends house do so some work on our cars. my friend and i together bought a tubing kit with cupplers and hose clamps. anywho we decided to route it into the finder. it didn't take 20 minutes to complete the task. it spools way faster, as well as a bit more power. on the way to Ft Collins i got 27.5 mpg, after the intake mod i drove back to Pueblo (roughly 190mi) and got 32MPG. i drove 65 up there and back. im also going to do the exh. and the saab TMIC. i just cant believe that the intake alone made that much of a difference.

32mpg on a turbo car ? Should be more like 22.

I've done 28 before (at 80+). But yeah, you need more tanks to see if the intake actually made a difference. It's very common to get different gas mileages going in each direction.

Yes, please do explain what you actually did because I haven't got a clue. Something to do with hoses and clamps and a mysterious "finder"?
