I appreciate the offer to help with the system. Not really sure how I'm going to run the wires with no carpet. I guess down the sides. I'll certainly take any bedliner you don't want/need.

I'm hoping new O2 sensors, and some other little fixes of stuff needing replaced helps a lot. I'll probably do new injectors soon as well.

throwing a cone filter on a stock intake doesn't do **** unless it already needed replacing, engines like cool, dense and non turbulent air. Unless your modifications allow more of one of those things you wont notice a power or MPG gain. If you want to learn the easy way to gain power I have some reading materials you could put your nose in.

No problem, its a power tuning book but the engine theory is the same for any 4 stroke gasoline engine. There is alot of stuff on the web too I have read.

If you really want super MPG get someone to crack the ECU and change the tune and have the injectors turn off on de-cel. The manufacturers do that to keep engine temps up so your emission levels stay low but the money you would save between Emissions tests would be insane. My buddy hacked his Saturn's computer and did a slight tune and de-cel turn off and went from 32 MPG to 43 MPG lol
