Answer:

well it is definatly worth purchasing one i would recommend a CL cold air intake it will give you about 5-10 hp but i am not sure about fuel milage
save your money none of these sewer pipes with air filters live up to the horsepower claims, and generally there is usually a drop in mpg. The kind of gain you expect, and what you will get, is going to be disappointing. One problem is that the rpm has to be high , so 3,500 and above is not going to be any good around town or on the freeway. Also those power chips are another way to waste hundreds of dollars, they often times interfere with the computer,and can cause check engine lights to pop on, We see this question many times a week, Often times they put the cold air intake on first, and an engine light pops on, or the thing does not fit and you have to fabricate or drill holes. If this stuff worked, I would be the first one to recommend them, I read about them, then went and talked to my mechanic, He suggested not fixing something that is not broken, and that spacers, cold air filters, and power chips cause more problems than they solve, and are not worth the excessive costs. Check with your mechanic, and see what he has to say, best of luck
