#21
Oh okay. With the k&n air filter im getting 27.1 but at first I was getting like 27.3. It droped im trying to decide ot a cai will help it.i know it depends on the foot..and I dont have a heavyfoot unless I'm in a hurry. I also want to get thr unichip. If anybody has it let me know how you like it
Point in case I think the unichip sounds like a solid deal for performance gains and perhaps a bit of fuel economy; but for fuel economy reasons alone may not pay off...but I could be wrong.

Oh, and also there seems to be a debate between CAI and WAI (warm air intake) as far as fuel economy goes; some argue that the CAI is able to pull in cooler more dense air providing more power requiring less throttle to achieve acceleration resulting in better fuel economy, while others argue that a warm air intake sucks in warm air at the cost of a little performance gain but helps atomize with the fuel better since it is already warm...I kind of consider the weapon r intake to be a warm air intake since it is sitting directly over the trans and next to the motor getting mostly warm air. I sometimes go look around in the 'ecomodder' forums as some of those guys are really dedicated to it and see what they manage to come up with; the WAI seems to be their preferred setup for best economy.
