air intakes

You know the old saying "A opinion is like a ***, everybody has one."
My opinion of air intakes are none are worth the money. I'll be the first to admit the Air Force One with the polished stainless steel tube looks good, just don't believe the $200.00 + price tag is worth it. I cut the "snout" end of my air filter canister off. I then extended the large diameter of the canister forward past the front radiator frame, made a few close and panels and seals. Now I have a 8 + inch un-restricted cold air intake. Also installed K&N filter. Complete project less than $60.00, and it made a huge different in power and throttle response. Also keep in mind some of these kits pull in hot engine compartment air, which is NOT good. :-(

Well there is my .02 cents worth.

I think an E-series intake would be well worth it. They
derate the engine because of the restrictive intake.
