If your driving habits don't change after modding, then your gas mileage will be about the same or slightly improved. However, with a modded car, there's a greater desire to "See what this baby will do".

Try installing an AEM intake
YOu might want to install an AEM intake kit to compliment your exhaust. I have the comptech cat back with the AEM intake and i get about 30 mpg.
