Try looking at some previous threads on the subject. Many members report gains with a KN drop in and the "swiss cheese" mod.

I have had the drilled airbox for about a year, which yielded a slight improvement in MPG (about 1/2 MPG increase), somewhat noticeable increase in performance (acceleration), and a definite increase in engine noise at full throttle.

I added a K&N filter to the airbox last month, which, so far, has yielded another 1/2 MPG, but no noticeable performance increase or noise. But it has only been a month...we'll see how it compares in a few months.

You will get better performance by dumping the airbox entirely and usine either a K&N or KKM filter kit.

Good luck...
