I agree, its not like you are replacing your filter every 20,000 miles. The stock air filter lasts for a very very long time.

Yes he does, as do I, but the sun coast tranny has nothing to do with how much power you are getting. It just makes the trans to where it can handle the power better.

Exactly. Some want to get more power, but forget the rest of the truck.

So true. There are a lot of people that just want to do the power adders and not the supporting mods. They need to realize that although they are not getting the fun out ifthe supporting mods they are doing the best thing by doing them first.
