Increased fuel costs have reduced pleasure trips and higher gasoline prices are sending consumers to discount gas stations. Smart drivers are realizing fuel savings by upgrading their vehicles at home with simple bolt-on high performance auto parts to increase mileage and performance, while reducing fuel costs.
Irvine, CA (PRWEB) April 13, 2005 -- Recent gasoline price hikes are keeping high performance and luxury SUVs parked. But consumers considering long summer road trips and even regional day trips remain unaware of proven ways to increase gas mileage for virtually every vehicle, from diminutive Mini-Coopers to big Hummers & luxury SUVs.
Drivers need only look to an automotive & truck performance parts center online to find after-market auto parts that increase gas mileage, enhance performance and extend engine life. From an $18 high flow air filter to a $100 low restriction muffler to a $600 performance exhaust system, knowledgeable automotive consumers can find options that meet their budget. They can purchase mileage enhancing performance parts online and easily install them at home.
Just a simple air filter upgrade can result in a noticeable increase in gas mileage, and with increasing pump prices, drivers need every advantage," said Tony Savasta, president of Performance Center Wholesale, an Irvine, California based auto parts distributor. Installing better-performing aftermarket parts like air management systems, high performance computer programmers or performance exhaust systems can cumulatively increase gas mileage by as much as 15 percent, and remain in full compliance with vehicle warranties."
Performance Center Wholesale recommends the following upgrade components for improving mileage and performance at http://www.performancecenter.com
- High Performance Air Filter* ($19+) flow up to twice the air of factory air filters, so the engine is properly aspirated and burns fuel more efficiently.
- High Performance Throttle Body Spacer* ($89-$100) increases air volume passing through the intake manifold, ensuring peak engine efficiency and reduced fuel consumption.
- High Performance Electric Cooling Fan* ($69+) Most older cooling fans are belt-driven off the drive shaft; creating power loss similar to an air conditioners power drain. An electric fan plugs into the electrical system instead, restoring power to the engine and increasing fuel economy.
- High Performance Exhaust System ($80-$600) helps spent gases escape more efficiently, with less engine strain.
- High Performance Cold Air Intake* ($100-$300) Cooler air contains more oxygen, which burns gas more efficiently.
- High Performance Computer Chip/Programmer* ($229+) Car engines are factory-set to run rich", using more fuel. Performance computer chips lean out the fuel-air mix, giving drivers optimum mileage.
- Selected components can easily be installed by most vehicle owners.
Always consult with an automotive expert to ensure you are purchasing the right parts for the vehicle.
PCW has sales teams who have tested out these and other components on their own vehicles.
