    Or get one from a S10 or Blazer if you want a tie down from the factory.

    Otherwise...mine just sits there.

    Mine lays down just fine,... you've been given plenty of options. Mine, nor do i think anyone elses, is wrapped in anything.

    Yea, never wrapped mine or stood it up. It should just sit there. I actually cut the bottom of the air box out so it can sit where it used to be. Then just zip tied it down. Been good for 2 years

    Wait...so your willing to tell the guy to go drop a Grant on a ZZP PCM when he can spend not even 10 bucks on one from an S10 Blazer from the junkyard...which in turn is the same damned thing?

    What do you guys get for an average city driving because I think my cold air intake lowered my average mpg i do all city driving. Just wanted an average to compare to mine. Now I get from14.9 to15.1 before intake I was getting 18+ mpg

    Do you like the sound it makes? lol if you're driving it harder now then yes, you'll lose mpg. If ANYTHING, most people say they get better millage, but if you do I'd think it would be a very slight increase. I don't have mine yet so I can't say but I'm sure other people will chime in.
