does anybody know exhaust and intake effect mpg?? because it seems like after installed the exhaust and intake on my car the mpg is keep on dropping and i now only can reach up to 210 per tank... before was more than 250...

Which intake and exhaust are you running?
Does California run a more oxygenated fuel this time of year?
Is it possible because you like the sound of the intake/exhaust, you are driving the car harder?

Yellow Streak has nailed it.

i get the same and I VTEC whenever it is dry...so most days and all the time. I wish I got 250 but I am closer to 200 miles per tank. It seems as though I get much less than everyone else.

Winter you get lower gas milage. If you drive around town you will get worse gas milage. If you put on those new things and also got a LEAD FOOT as well then well you know what happens there!

Your not all that far off if you only get 200 mpg driving hard and mostly around town. Mostly it has to do with how far and how often you put the foot to the floor.

Hit the track for a full day. Only did that one time with my car but........I saw.............9 mpg!!!! Yea thats right 9. I got 100 miles our of a full tank of gas!!!

This topic always reminds me of a buddy of mine who bought 2 brand new megbuck Mercedes sedans in deisels because he wanted to save a few bucks in fuel costs. The mathematics of it simply eludes me.
