most mild mods wont affect MPG, no bolt on will, unless you go with o/r mid pipe. i say go for gears, the mileage doesnt change that much, its well worth the pull you gain. you can shave .5 in the 1/4 with just gears. also exhaust, the mufflers first, then the mid pipe, headers wont make a diff. until you upgrade the induction. once you do that you will be playing with MPG. dont waste youre money on a CAI, get a K&N panel filter, and remove the silencer. just that alone should wake it up a little.

Gears will change it most of all IMO cause the rpms are always higher therefore burning more gas

RE: need more power for my mustang
i didnt say gears wont change the MPG, b/cause of coarse they will, but the subject is more power with not much loss of MPG and gears especially 3.55 are well worth the gain. you know going from 3.08s to 3.73s only changes the RPMs 400RPM at 70MPH.
