do cold air intakes give you more mpg or less?

sort of both. Technically they suck in more air, creating a more "lean" mixture of gas/air so you would get a mile or two more from each gallon of gas. But because of the sound the intakes produce is so pleasing you will find yourself stepping a bit harder on your gas pedal, so you probably wont see those 1-2 miles for a while.
