I tried a k&n filter and throttle body spacer and it gave better gas mileage plus little more growl at the intake.

Likely to get a little better economy if you can stay off the pedal on the right. Problem is most exhaust system make car sound so good people want to run them harder, therfore getting worse mileage. As an analogy though any free flowwing exhaust will improve just from a physics standpoint. I.E. if you exhaled through a coffee stir stick..vs a full size straw. Which one would be easier for you to get a breath back in?
