For the money you cannot beat one of these Napa 6637 filters from fleetfilters.com About 32 bucks and a 3 in long 4 inch piece of pipe and you have a great intake system though it can be loud.
Also the Ford AIS intake can be had for 200 or so dollars and it is alot cheaper then the AFE set ups. Do you have gauges to montior your truck and what chip are you running?

The guys here steered you in the right direction. The 6637 is the best value.
To answer your original question though, AFE filters are superior to the AirRaid. I run an AFE with a Proguard7 and love it. Pricey yes, but I got a smokin deal on it. It was such a good deal, I actually bought an extra Proguard7 filter for ease of filter changing and cleaning. If I had to do it over, I would probably buy the 6637 and buy some more boating toys.
