i want to put a cold air intake on my truck but dont relaly want to spend a ton of cash i came across this one

http://onestopshops.hostedbyamazon.c...source=froogle

its cheap but do you think i should get it or just pay up the 300 for a good one and also putting a throttle body spacer on there will a gian a noticable amount of power or such?

thanks

 

ive been wondering the same thing. I have been considering one of the 30 dollar gaybay ones then just going down to autozone and buying a quality filter

 

Pretty much anything is better than stock, ebay has quite a few for our trucks and thats were i got my CAI, dont waste your money on the spacer it will be worth more as a paperweight for your desk

 

+1 on the spacer being a waste of money.

 

i got spectre cold air intake,,, ebay also has one just like it cheaper

not big gains but on the higher side of the power band you can feel it

the one you post would be nice if you could build a box to keep it cooler

 

i have the spectre one and i like it and it made some difference

 

so any really cold air intake will help out

 

The one shown in the link isn't really a "cold air" intake. It is just less restrictive than the stock box, and tubes. You are going to end up with an open element filter, drawing nice toasty warm air right out of the engine compartment. Will you see any gains? Questionable.

 

yes any aftermarket air intake will shown gains how much depends on design and where it pulls the air from, im pretty happy with the one I got from ebay it didnt lose low end and you can feel it every time you go to pass a car, I recomend gettin one with a box just to help with water from splashing onto it and to pull in cooler air.

Mine was $85 off of ebay and there is another brand that is similar for just under $60, and the spectre is only like $150 if you want pics let me know and Ill post one up

 

+1 on the Spectre CAI. Just installed mine and very happy with it.
