quadzilla or AFE?

Hey new guy here...1999 7.3 td crew cab. Just finished 5" magna flow installation. My question is any performance data for AFE vs quadzilla cold air intakes?

Or user experience?

Thanx

Welcone to FTE.

I don't know about the quadzilla, but I have the afe stage II, it's a supreme filter system, but costs alot. Many her use the 6637 with great success much cheaper, do a search here for the kwik 6637 filter mod.

welcome to FTE ...if you have the early 99 most likely the quadzilla will not work unless you get extra parts and modify your intake tube..by that time you might just as well do the 6637 mod...im sure the AFE II and the 6637 flow alot more are then the quadzilla as well...

AFE Stage II with a Pro Dry S filter here.

No problems at all. A little pricey though.

Without a doubt the best bang for your buck is the 6637 Airfilter.
