Question Ford AIS

I'm looking to get a AIS Severe Duty Kit. What do y'all think of it and where can I get the best price for it? I know the 6637 is cheaper but I want a lot of filtration and to stay closer to stock. Opinions? comments?
Thanks,

The link Ray posted looks like a pretty dang cheap price if you ask me!

I know a lot of folks run the AFE setups and like them. Just another option.

A 6637 and one of Pete's covers on! Works great for me and alot of others! Never got wet yet, great air flow, also the filter lasts longer, just wash the cover every now and than!

The AIS should flow better than stock and give a slight improvement. But, not really any SOTP feel.

I really like my AIS. Stops a lot of crud even with a zoodad mod. Got my unit from Your Premiere Source for Ford Truck Parts | Powerstrokeshop.com.

The 6.leaker Airfilter was actually a really good design by Ford they can actually do well up to 500 HP and it works great with the zoodad though there is alot more modifcation then with the AIS or 6637.

The 6.0 stock filter actually a Dondaldson PowerCore. I don't think Ford had anything to do with it....
