I am 100% sure I got a gas mileage boost from doing the "gotts" style mod to the stock intake. I can't really explain why this should be except that possibly I get a better A/F mixture at near WOT which in turn gives me better power shortening the time I have to be in that state?

Anyway, I know before the intake mod, I could get 15.5 mpg at 55-60 mph. Anything faster and the mileage dropped. Now I get 15.5 at 70-75, and am above 16.0 at 55-60.
