How much gas loss do mods cause on a teg?
Before I installed AEM CAI on my car I got 330 to the tank. After installation it went down to 275. And no I don't punch it everytime to hear the growl. 
Which mods on your tegs have caused gas loss and by how much?

for bolt ons like intake, header, and exhaust, i doubt that it affects mileage noticeably, if at all. usually most people start to drive more aggressively often, resulting in poorer mileage...but not because of the bolt ons.

What did it for me was the new cat. It's really free-flowing now, and thus quite e bit more rev-happy than what I'm used to.
The SRI for me decreased city milage and increased freeway mileage. My best run with the intake/headers/exhaust on the freeway was 37MPG (70 MPH, cold as hell night, and 280 traffic-free miles)

a good 15% of the drive was uphill.
