You can go to ebay or build one that will work just as well as a name brand one

If you're aiming to increase the power of your rig, you may not notice a big improvement. Installing a good exhaust and headers are what you need.

Intake really won't do squat with regards to power. It will make your truck sound a little better, but $285 is a lot for that. Build your own for under $50.

You may as well toss that $285 down the toilet it won't do you squat buy a cheap one look on ebay

If you want to spend $285 get a good throttle body a fastman if they have one for your engine
