I can tell you now, you just opened up a can of worms...everyone had their own opinion on cai. Just pick one and go with what you think is best. As for throttle body spacers everyone says to save your money they are not worth it! I have a K&N CAI and I love it.

everyone is going to give different opinions on this. Here is a thread to show your options and just how many different answers u can get. Everyone thinks their intake is the best out. Especially K&N owners.

Everyone loves the CAI on their truck and they're going to tell you to go with the same one. Give the folks at Troyer Performance a call and talk to them, they'll steer you straight and give you unbiased answers.

I think even the proformance shops are Biased.. they talked me into the K&N bottom line.. IMO.. they all do much the same.. its a very simple concept I chose the K&N because its what the local shop had...
