I live in the U.S. and gas prices have been rising steadily over the last 2 years. My 2001 XC70 gets between 20-21 mpg (which isn't great) all the time. I invested $150 in an improved air filter (K&N) and a capacitor for the battery. Each of the items claims an average of 10% gas mileage improvement. I did some basic calculations for cost per mile at $2.69 a gallon gas and figured I the items would pay for themselves in about 8 months since we put 15k miles a year on the car.
Anyone else use items like these?
I'll update the forum in a month with the results and if the money is worth it.
