does the WAI and the 180 thermo give you a noticeably better gas mileage, or just a little bit

The WAI will give you a few miles to the gallon highway yes, and I'm not totally sure on the stat. Something tells me that it just helps with keeping the motor cooler, nothing in terms of fuel consumption. ( Atleast, I never noticed anything after I switched to a 180, that much is for sure )
Hope this helps.

Its always a good idea to get synthetic motor oil like Mobile one full synthetic and I use a fuel cleaner plus on someone recently recommended Seafoam. Also the 180 thermo works well for me as far as it seems to allow the me to "run it" harder when i need to. I mean 11 bux...why not
