How's your mileage
 
Minimal improvement to my V8
Since I put in a K&N air filter, my mileage went up to 16.5 MPG (from 15) Woo Hoo[sm=patriot.gif]

I don't own a raider but I got a K & N filter for my Endeavor. I haven't checked the MPG but I have noticed more power when I have had the urge to step on the gas. Stinks that there aren't much aftermarket parts for these cars.

I also noticed better response after replacing the paper filter. You can't drive at low rpm all the time. It's just not good for the engine. You gotta blow it out once in a while.;)

I'm getting 17.5 in mixed driving and 20.5 on long trips.

The CAI and bed cover help a little. A freer flowing exhaust will help some too.(soon I hope)

Since I added the leer bed cover I'm up to 18 mpg. Last weekend I still got 15 mpg while towing my 20 foot camper. I was so psyched. The old dodge van used to drop from 18 to 9.
