mileage
 
well today was my 1st real good run with my installed K & N cold air intake kit. Been in for a couple weeks now and have only been driving local longest drive has been Burlington to Brampton. So really could not get a good feel for gas mileage. Intown I love the sound of the airintake sucking air and the sound of the MagnaFlow exhaust paired up so gas mileage was a average of 18 to 20 L per 100KM :frown:
today I did a drive from Burlington to Sarnia and back and average was 12.1 L per 100km was really impressed with that! :biggrin:
4.7L in my GC ltd she has 312,000k's on her and still runs great.

So for those of you who are thinking of putting on a cold air intake for gas mileage pair it up with a good exhaust and all should work out.

what are some oyhers getting for gas mileage?? with a GC with the 4.7L

Re: mileage
 
One thing I've noticed over the last couple years is that alttitude really affects mileage to. At home (5000ft) I'll average 10.9-11.3, working in Fort McMurray (1600ft) I'm around 14.5-16, and for the last year I've been working on the coast in BC (50-700ft) I'm doing good if I'm getting 20-22. So apparently my Jeep likes the thinner air.
