Changes to setup?

Has anyone with the Dinan Package made changes to their setup and gotten better results? (i.e)gas milage, acceleration, or even dyno#'s. I been thinking of changing the CAI, and intercooler upgrade.

I have a 15% Alta Pulley, MTH software (non tuner), dinan intake, & UUC exhaust. Yesterday I hit an all time high of 346.7 Miles when I refilled my gas @ 12.1 Gallons. About 40% highway driving, allways on the throttle, about 50% of the time with the AC on 3.

thats about 28.6MPG. Not too shabby.

*add, also my car is pretty fast. accelration is on par with my neighbors JCW. Scares him

346miles for 12 gallons

That's actually pretty good, I could only manage 320 for 12 gallons, usually I'm stuck in traffic and the commute last about 45 mins, 30 w/o traffic.
