All I have to add is a Spectre brand filter will NEVER be used in one of my vehicles.

I have an AEM Brute force in mine (4.6) the dyno sheet said 7hp gain (aem's dyno sheet) I also have a custom tune in mine. Intake temps run about the same as ambient (according to the programmer) maybe a little gain based on the seat of the pants dyno but for the money and if I had to do it again I don't think I'd go with the intake

I had a S&B set up on the truck for about three years. (2009-2012ish) very well built, however just no real gain just noise that's it. I think they are a waste of money. Just take that cash and get a good programmer.

I am pleased with my K&N, however you need to know right from the start you will pay $250+ for some induction noise, that's it. You have to decide if the sound is really worth it to you. (To me it was) I also really happen to like the way it looks in the bay.

If I remember correctly I was sent a "dyno sheet" with the CAI..... just throw that thing right out, it's nonsense
