I was talking about my intake was better than stock, but I know any 14x3 has to be better than stock.

Why? Increasing airflow into the engine can only be beneficial across the rpm range. It is changes to the exhaust that can affect how an engine makes power and where.

I was reading another thread and it said that if you have a CAI you get good low end but when you get into high RPMS the 14x3 is better and it also said the 14x3 is not as good on low as the CAI but was better on the top end. But I dont know never used a 14x3 filter

It's not that one or the other is better for the low end. It's that one is better for the high end.

HankL's message 5/07/07

If you want extra noise and flashy colored parts
go with spending $200-400 on a CAI.

MPG and HP gains are near zero if true tests are done
as has been confirmed by independent volunteers

There are ways to spend $400 and get real hp and MPG gains
