Don't know about the exhaust, but gotta love the sound of the throttle plate snapping open with the CAI!

You will be hooked after them two mods yes better power and gas milage. You just wont see the mileage because your going to love the sound of the car in upper rpm range.

This exactly! People complain that they saw no Mpg improvements from cai, exhaust, tune, etc. but its due to them now driving more spirited. I assure you if you can control yourself you will see improvements in mpgs. its common sense. better efficiency yields better performance or better mpgs. Those who say it won't are idiots lol
