Why is it so cheap? How does this differ from a K&N CAI?

lol i like how you guys feel saving money is sketchy. Serious? Its a pipe and a filter. Only thing missing is that it doesn't have a heat shield. No instructions? lol What is hard for you to start your truck this am? anyone show you how to turn the key?

Im not saying im buying it but man, to save 200+ on a filter and pipe. Sounds good to me.

it's cheap because there is no info to prove it makes any power, sure a K&N fipk 2 is 300 bucks, with dyno proven results, anyone can make a pipe fit the intake and chrome it, then all they need is a sucker to buy it.

if i am going to spend $$ to gain hp, i wanna see where i will get my hp at, no take someone's word about how good it is

your money bud, but i bet it throws your maf out of wack, man you cant always just build this stuff it needs be engineered, theyre built like they are for a reason, i dont even see enough stuff to build a decent CAI, but hey its your truck you wanna put cheap **** on it and F it up by all means do it
