Depending on the cost and how it would effect the warranty I'd be willing to bolt on proven stuff that has documented mpg gains if the cost payback makes sense.
Do we know of stuff that really works and has been pr oven with data???
What I see is 99% of the folks that make changes like this are in the other camp and want more power than the OEM 109hp. I think that why any reliable data on the gains may be missing.  |
The mods that are out there have only data on increased HP and none for increased MPG. You can expect a MPG gain but there is no data to prove it besides others stating their gains. Its a long shot but for me, as long as you dont gun it, i do show gains over stock. At the same time though tweaking with any car can void warranties and so fourth. Maybe a drop in K&N or maybe a tornado can help you. Those will not void warranties that i know for sure. The warranty claims are simple. The dealership has to prove that your modification was the cause for what ever malfunction occured. Its hard to do but it is still a possibility. Thats my .02 cents atleast.
