Default Re: 19.8mpg after HC removed!

I live in Arizona and will try this. Do i just buy a filter from an auto zone or checkers to replace the one I'll be taking out?
The HC filter is in the top cover of your air filter box. It is mounted by plastic tabs and was not designed to be removable. It is actually an emission filter made of a charcoal material. It has little effect, if any, on the air flow to the engine. Others will tell you different, but the results are merely wishful thinking and have no documented proof of mpg improvement.
