i think it has something to do with your shitty spelling and grammar. id try to fix that as a first priority. and if it doesn't help the gas milage, well, it can't hurt.

since you put a catback, your car breathes out more air... the ecu compensates by adding more fuel to try and keep the same air/fuel ratio...
more air = ecu adding more fuel = more hp
a little lower gas mileage is a small price to pay for more hp...

its all by the way u drive seriously. You just have to drive like a granny. Once i drove like one and got like 36mpg 95% city driving and i had a catback and intake. You just press the gas more when you have these mods to hear it lol

ROFL you guys are just mean. But yeah...that first post made my head hurt. And there is no way you should be getting 10mpg. (60 miles and over half a tank of gas) You may wanna check if someone siphoned your gas.

I have a theory that the increase in the amount of people using the internet - emails and instant messaging - has contributed to the digression of our spelling. Initially misspelling words so they can converse faster, but then becoming so use to it that they begin to write like that on term papers etc.
Now let me spell check this before I submit, for fear of looking stupid
