People are just waiting on testing really. I have only had it on one day. But so far with my similar driving habits. I gget been able to get +1.5 mpg in the city and 3mpg better on the highway. But there has been no negative draws on it yet. I'll keep updated. Going to make a long trip from va to Alabama at the end of the month so I should be able to get more accurate information. The best part about putting this on was the faster response with the throttle! So for me the 160 was well worth it

Oh definitely will especially after the trip to Alabama. If that doesn't test it then not much will

There are a couple other threads on this. One of them, at least, is pretty long. Info in them might help your decision if you'd care to seek them out, if you haven't already.
