http://chris.pirillo.com/how-to-increase-gas-mileage-on-your-car/ - Brandon Wirtz decided it was time to make a few upgrades to his Mini Cooper. One of these upgrades - which is primarily focused on increasing horse power and gas mileage - is to increase the amount of air flow to the engine.

A new air intake won't create a drastic change in your car's overall performance alone. It is one of several upgrades that can improve the way your vehicle functions. A slow car won't become an instant drag racer, but the benefits in the improved gas mileage may pay off financially over time.

Do you have any gas mileage or speed increasing tips or tricks? Please leave a comment and let me know.

  • @regi6500 that dudes kinda big for that car

  • but with the most sincerity possible, you should stick with Popeye's World of Warcraft living with your mom and trying to tame that gnarly receding hairline and please leave cars to those of us who dont have a panic attack merging onto the highway. oh by the way the john cooper works package is 7000 dollars more not 400 you fucking dumb ass

  • I would like to start out by saying that you could probably make a living from talking out of your ass. there were a few parts of this video that really made me want to find you and beat your ass. particularly when you called the mass air flow SENSOR a meter and the cloth filter? which is cotton gauze last time i checked. by the way nice manly mini cooper. but really the icing on the cake is when you mentioned you "66 Mustang" undoubtedly with a bitch ass 170ci straight 6.

  • I bought one just for the amazing sound it makes :D

  • Lol thats the worst place to put that, right over the hot exhaust manifold. Heat rises.

  • 40+10+4 dollars idk how he gets 45 dollar upgrade haha

  • @lockergnome In the response video your intake temps were 4 degrees warmer than outside temp, thats not a crucial amount of temp but at the end of the day it is the opposite result of what you are looking for. Stick to the product reviews and get out of the car biz

  • great place for an intake not

  • i dont drive over 100 mph.. often
