Hey im thinking about purchasing a bluepower CAI one soon.
Has the fuel economy dropped much after fitting this CAI in boss v8's? Currently I am getting around 15l per 100km every tank in my BA GT Thanks in advance Adam |

We do get feed back that the CAI does improve your fuel economy..
Custom tuning will allways net a better fuel economy than the factory tune..

On the Hwy you will get a decent improvement, im not running the BPR Airbox yet but using a rival brand i average around the 10.1-10.3L/100km.
Around town Economy will be worse due to sticking your foot in it all the time :P |
