I would think using the stock air box with an Airaid replacement filter and maybe a new smoother tube that runs fron the filter to the throttle body would work better.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

This is the setup I have gone with. No worries about water ingestion voiding a warranty. I have the Airaid filter in the stock box, the Airaid Modular Intake Tube from the box to the intake and the coolant bypass. I have also added the Granetelli mass air flow sensor and the Predator Programmer.

I actually added these in stages (exception to adding the filter and the intake tube together) and I can't say which individual piece netted out the most gain in MPG's but overall I had a gain of almost 3 MPG. That's over about 4 months of driving. The seat of the pants HP and torque is easily noticeable, but most noticeably by using the programmer. This increase is also applied better because you can control the shift points and firmness.
