Not saying you aren't getting improvements, but compared to the amount of money you paid for them, it'll be more than 5 years, if that early, before you'll get savings. Anyone making mods shouldn't be doing them to save gas. I didn't make any of my mods to save money - they were performance mods. If I get a MPG increase, it's a bonus.
