Any idea why the amazon ad says this?

"Legal ONLY for racing vehicles/Not for use on emission controlled street or highway vehicles "

 

because of emission and vavle cover brether, the crankcase aire is not reuse( sucked to into motor


if you would emission testing in your state ge it test with stock box then and then go get the 14x3 back on

 

yea 2001ram what county do you live in? I live over in San Angelo which is in Tom Green we dont do emissions testing but my truck came from keller. Which is up near ft. worth and they did so yea needless to say the truck had the stock intake and i put a 14x3 on it and havent had a problem so if your county doesnt do emissions inspections your good

 

I live in Williamson County. Yes, sadly they do emmisions testing. One of the many few in the state of TX.

 

If you don't want to spend that kind of money, but want the K&N, do what I did. I went to summit racing, and bought the summit 14x3 kit that comes with a paper filter, and than bought the K&N filter to use with it. You won't need the spacer either with their's. with they're shipping charge, I paid less that $80 for everything.

 

The one I ordered on Amazon was $50 with a K&N filter. So, I got a great deal.

 

that is the same thing i did but mine was mr. gasket from the parts store, 27$.
i did go to the dealer for an air cleaner gasket though because the parts stores gaskets are a felt/rubber type deal and the dealer has solid rubber gaskets.

 

I got a edlebrock 14x3 from autozone for $20. They still have them.

 

Got it installed today. I love it, and can already feel a difference. Wow, it sounds louder too.

 

well thats good u might look into a filter sleeve for it now. Its a pre filter lol and enjoy and i just got back from a road trip from Marble falls got my dad an 01 just like yours except his is two-tone gray and silver. Same wheels and nerf bars one owner with 68,000 miles
