I would like to get an aftermarket intake and was looking at AFE or K&N.
AFE now has an oil free intake system any thoughts?
Thanks

actual rear wheel HP gains come no where close to the box advertising! i think it was FRED who posted his gains with a K&N filter compared to a stock filter. there was a 5-7hp gain with the K&N filter.

the V10's intakes are not restrictive compared to the older models, or a car intake tube!!

save your $ get a good filter (dry or oil) and put that extra money into gas!! you might notice alittle difference but it woun't be 25HP difference!

Geez Louise! Where do they come up with that stuff?! 25/35 over stock with a filter change. Wonder what "application" they're talking about!? Must be the "application" that came with a sock stuffed in the intake tube...
