if i were you i would go for a custom pcm tune(pcmforless.com,waitformeperformance.com) or a custom dyno tune. youll get much more bang for your buck from these options when compared to a handheld IMO.

it allows more air(colder/more dense) to be taken in by your engine. usually adding a CAI will improve throttle response and you may see an increase in mpg's.

k i will. i have a leak coming from the under the hood it doesnt seem to be afecting anything much just the oil. do u know what it could be???

If you're saying you have an oil leak, it is caused by a leak at a gasket or seal. You will have to find the source of it for yourself. Try to follow the leak from the lowest point upward to the source. If the engine is really dirty you may have to wash it down first and then look for the leak.
