Interesting feedback, Joe. I'm reasonably certain I gained about 0.5 mpg in highway driving with the Gotts mod. But, as you say, there are MANY factors that effect this, and one tank of gas isn't really a fair test. I came up with my 0.5 figure comparing two trips of about 1,000 miles, but even that has variables that could alter the results.

I DO know that those of us here that are "close" to PHP are firm believers in the Gotts mod. It is certainly possible that a correctly designed commercial intake could beat it performance wise, but the difference would be minimal and would hardly justify the additional expense. I agree though, the commercial CAIs look kind of "cool".

Well, I've decided to keep the Gotts, 400 bucks for something only slightly better just isnt worth it. I'm going to put a k&n filter in place of the paper one but thats about it. The major reason I'm doing anything to this truck is for fuel economy thats how I'm justifying it anyway. A ten dollar mod has a much better return on investment than a 400 dollar one. Next project is a flex a lite monster fan. I got most of it installed this afternoon. Just have to hook up all the wires in the morning and them im in business.

Yep, if you gain JUST 1 average mpg it will probably be paid for after about 4 tanks.
