just wondering would a cold air intake help my gas mileage? my mileage is horrible! just curious and would my stock airbox being completely sealed up in the front hole and little penholes on the top hurt the gas mileage as well? i was thinking if i just throw a open filter on the jeep it would help it

In full tank you must got around 280 - 350 miles
air filter should help but not that much
It all depends the brand,On a f150 site they tested every known one on one truck on a dyno.Only 2 brands shown any better mileage of 2mpg some did nothing and some hurt the mileage.

What kind of cold air intake are you meaning? A supposedly "cold air intake" like a K&N? Or a true cold air intake like a snorkel or a cowl intake?
