The dudes on this forum (me included) have tuned, been tuned, tooled, re-tooled, modded, and tweaked their brains out, and still I have yet to see anyone on here report that they're even getting a consistent and solid 14MPG (unless it's all flat highway miles with the cruise control at 55 MPH).
If you can figure out how to make your box get a consistent 5+ MPG over the a stock setup, I'll be the first to PM you.

i didnt say i get a consistant 14mpg. i just said i gained 1 mpg with an open air intake. doesnt matter how much the car weighs...you can still do things to improve fuel economy. of which i dont even know why this is turning into an argument, because this is the least of my concerns with my hummer. anyone who plans or has put larger wheels and tires on their hummer is expecting the horrible gas mileage. i was just stating that buying my cheap intake i gained the 1mpg i lost when i switched to the nitto trail grapplers
