Replying to: whitewolf (Aug 09, 2007 9:33 am) I don't believe that K&N makes any compete induction systems for cars, only air filtration devices and their associated housings and plumbing.   Best Regards, Shipo Replies to this message: eldaino (Aug 10, 2007 6:46 am) shipo (Aug 10, 2007 10:59 am) pat (Aug 10, 2007 3:10 pm) and 1 more...

#1075 of 2058 New Civic Si Sedan- MPG by puzman Aug 10, 2007 (5:13 am)
My daily commute is 2/3rds cruising around 50 on rural roads, then 70+ on freeway, then 5 mins or so of stop-and-go. First two tanks were during break-in (no trips above 5000 RPM):   27.5 mpg, 29 mpg   Third tank after break-in (at least one trip/day to redline), and overall more agressive driving : 27.5 mpg All tanks were during heavy AC use. I think this is pretty impressive for a performance car. I imagine with less A/C use and less agressive driving, I could easily break 30 mpg. Replies to this message: rupnok1 (Aug 10, 2007 11:21 am)

Replying to: shipo (Aug 09, 2007 10:24 am) they make actual intakes, does that count as a full system? Replies to this message: shipo (Aug 10, 2007 10:59 am) pat (Aug 10, 2007 3:10 pm) shipo (Aug 10, 2007 5:56 pm)

Replying to: eldaino (Aug 10, 2007 6:46 am) No, K&N does not make any full intake systems; all they make is the filter, the filter housing and the necessary plumbing to fit the filtration device to your car.   I suggest that before we raise the ire of our hosts any further, we put a lid on this discussion, and if necessary, continue it over in the "Gas Saving Gizmos & Gadgets" discussion.   rjlee, "Gas Saving Gizmos & Gadgets" #1, 6 Sep 2001 2:50 pm   Best Regards, Shipo Replies to this message: pat (Aug 10, 2007 3:10 pm) shipo (Aug 10, 2007 5:56 pm)
