Smile will this combination increase my mileage...?

Adding KnN filter and upjetting the carb and changing the stock to iridium plug and implementing spitfire cables, does this combination improves my mileage... if not, what will be the change in the performance...? for my apache rtr 160...

I somehow feel you are asking for trouble. Expect advices like 'upgrading' to CD-Dawn

More seriously though, post the query on Apache RTR thread in 'motorcycle ownership experiences' section. It might be of some help
