I own a Hemi 2004 1500 quad cab 4X4...Try this... I installed a K & N filter as well as a tornado( I know, might be a gimick... but). I consistantly get 15 MPG running around town and have get 22 MPG strictly on the highway. Seems to work for me... at the rate these gas prices are going, everything helps! Does anyone know of a V chip which might help with better MPG? Does anyone know of a V chip which may help with MPG? email me at nrpettorutocomcast.net.

I HAVE RECENTLY INSTALLED A K&N AIR FILTER IN MY 2005 RAM 1500 4.7 LITER. I WENT FROM 14.0MPG TO 16.0 MPG. DOES ANYBODY KNOW FOR A FACT HOW MUCH MORE I CAN GET OUT OF THE FLOW MASTER AMERICAN THUNDER.

NICK I HAVE ALSO RECENTTLY ADDED A FEW MILES WITH THE K&N FILTER . I THINK I AM GOING TO PURCHASE THE FLOW MASTER CAT BACK KIT NEXT VS THE CHIP. I DO BELEIVE THAT I WILL HIT 17-18 MPG AROUND TOWN. I FEAR THE CHIP MIGHT IN TIME DO MORE HARM THAN GOOD AND COULD VOID MY POWER TRAIN WARRANTY. HOWEVER IF YOU DECIDE TO INSTALL THE CHIP IN YOUR TRUCK PLEASE E-MAIL ME WITH THE RESULTS I AM ALSO CURIOUS IF THE CHIP WOULD BE A GOOD INVESTMENT.
GOOD LUCK.
