>>Anybody have any suggestions on how to get thru to him,or should i just
ignore his comments?<<

after you do these mods your gas mileage WILL improve <if you keep your foot
out of it>... show him the receipts then astound him with the figures of how
much you'll save over a year with your MPG increase. I mean, with the intake
and exhaust mods you'll probably see about 1.5 or more mpg gain.
Let's do some math here.
Let's say you have a 22gallon tank. If you gain 1.5mpg, then you will be
able to drive 33 more miles per tank of gas. Now, let's say you use a tank
of gas per week. That 1716 more miles over a whole year! Now, assuming you
get 300 miles per tank (which is a rough guestimation) that's 5.72 fewer
tanks of gas you'll use over the course of a year, which is 125.84 gallons
of gas. At $1.40 a gallon (estimated) you'll save $176.18!

confused yet? I would be if I hadn't typed this =)
