I also heard that running a stinger on the front bumper adds 5mpg. The lift it generates results in less friction on the tires and also better airflow over the Jeep.

I almost took the bait.

But seriously people, the CAI's are essentially proven wastes of money. If you like the sound, I guess go for it. The people who engineer the pentastar did not overlook CAIs and throttle body spacers on accident.
