    Sorry, it isn't physically possible for such an intake to improve fuel economy. If you don't agree, then please instruct us on the physics of improved economy.

    Sorry, I'm not trolling you, you just posted something factually incorrect and I needed to correct the record so others who are less well informed don't believe what you posted.

    I forgot you were in my truck before and after I installed it. I remember you taking notes about the difference in mpgs and analyzing the data to get the facts. Also forgot you know everything about everyone’s trucks. That’s completely my fault professor

    Let’s not let facts muddy up a perfectly good anecdotal thread

    It’s crazy how many times this comes around when it’s been proven these things don’t do squat except part you from your money.
