4.7 MPG Improvment Plan For MY Tundra. Step 1
My Plan to Increase Gas Mileage on my Tundra:
Install the Injen/Amsoil Cold Air Intake System.

We all know this part:
..Intake System Design
Air intake systems serve several important functions. Primarily, they are used to increase the amount of oxygen available to the engine and reduce air turbulence increasing power. Because cool air has greater density than hot air, aftermarket intakes improve combustion of fuel by capturing cooler air from outside the engine compartment. In addition, an aftermarket air intake system increases the diameter of the intake as compared to the original equipment, increasing air flow into the engine and making more oxygen available during the combustion process.
By designing a more direct route for the air entering the engine, as well as a smoother interior surface for the intake, air resistance is reduced and air flow is increased. To protect the engine from damaging dirt, cold air intakes are also equipped with filters. Air intake systems can improve gas mileage and increase performance, and they also add a sleek, custom look to a vehicle.
..INJEN GASOLINE INTAKES
Improved Air Flow Equals Increased Power
Injen/AMSOIL Power-Flow Gasoline Intake Systems feature AMSOIL Ea Air Filters with Nanofiber Technology. This offers state-of-the-art filter efficiency while providing excellent protection and air flow. The cleanable and reusable Ea filter element provides a longer filter life with proper maintenance. The systems also feature removable prefilters, which remove larger dirt particles to extend the life of the EaA filter.
The increased inlet size of the air intake systems increases horsepower and torque while providing more passing power for changing lanes, especially while towing. The 360° accordion style filter elements provide 500% more surface area, maximizing air flow into the engine. Finally, the improved air flow can help improve fuel economy (depending on driving habits, conditions and vehicle upkeep) and help the engine run cooler and more efficiently.
Amsoil Dealer Cost: $360.00.
Why the Injen? I trust that Amsoil joint ventured with them because their product is the best. And, I get the dealer price and bonus.
If my mileage goes up 'only' 1 mile per gallon, from 17.5 to 18.5, at 2 to 3 tanks a week, I will save enough to pay for it in around a year.
