I purchased my K&N on ebay for $216.00. Install was no problem. Took it out for a spin after I did the install and all went fine. No rattling, no abnormal engine noise. I hope to see a slight improvent on performance and gas milage.
I am looking into Magnaflows or Borlas for a cat-back exhaust in the near future.

why does the tube's diameter decrease at the filter.
according to the commericals, is that really a precision engineered tube or bottle neck restriction to increase velocity or some bs?

Per http://www.kandn.com
"Next we attach the filter to a rotationally molded tube made from interlaced High Density Polyethylene. This process allows us to precisely shape the tube to reduce turbulence and accelerate airflow into the engine. This is why some of our tubes have unique shapes or indentations that are specifically engineered for each application."

This is where the mass air sensor is transplanted from the stock air box base to this area. The internal cross sectional areas have to be the same for proper air flow rate measurements.

To be honest, I tried on a Magna-flow, Flowmaster, and, Dynaflow on my car before I chose Remus. The Remus gave me a quality deep sound while the others sounded kind of trashy. I would definately look into remus before installing anything else.
I can actually help you get a good deal on any sort of exhaust system on your truck though. Let me know if you're interested.

Complete Airaid or Airaid Junior? I went to Airaid and did not find an application for the H3.

THATS A GOOD PRICE.

flyingbadger, is there a cover for the K&N aircharger you installed? I saw a Volant on another thread with a cover. Apparently the cover will force the system to pull cool air from outside the vehicle instead of warm air from under the hood. I know you have a K&N but will the cooler air increase the HP more than the warmer air? Anyone have any feedback please let me know. I'm ready to order one of them and am trying to decide. Thanks
