Anyone have an opinion or facts on which of the two is a better system. Everything I read says that they are about the same. If anyone has a real world comparison I would like to hear about it. I know this has been posted before, but it has been a while and I wanted to see if anyone has any new info.

Thanks,

It's a little premature for me, but I bought the air raid system, but I haven't put it in. There is a link https://dodgeforum.com/m_297746/tm.htm where you can get the air raid system for $210 (this included S/H) where the K&N is closer to $300. Seems to me that you get more bang for the buck with air raid.

I'm puting mine in on Friday.

Let me know how it works out. It will be after the new year before I can get mine.

Thanks,
Aaron

Let me get this straight:

Adding a washable filter to my stock intake will slightly improve my HP and gas mileage, right?
Adding a CAI (which includes one of those washable filter) will improve my HP and gas mileage even more than the filter alone, is that correct?

Will I feel the power increase, or just hear it? I've seen alot of folks say that you'll get 2-3 more MPG, if so everyone should get one right?

From what I've heard, you'll feel a big difference. I'll know tomorrow though. When I get the time to do it that is. You're suppose to get 2-3mpg. That's a whole lot better than what the drop in filter will do for you. I didn't even notice a change in power when I bought the drop in. I had heard both sides to that, but I found that there was not much of anything all the way around.

Ok, I added the Air Raid system. Seems to be good so far. I think that with my truck being an AWD, the acceleration is not as much as I thought it would be. There is some difference though. I noticed I don't have to give it a lot of gas to get it going. As long as I don't punch it, I won't hear the loud throttling.

I like it. I also just added a new Chrome gas door. That also looks good.

Hope this helps.

Keep us in mind when you get some MPG data. Thanks

I took it to Olympia and back (Vancouver) and it averaged about 17.2 at 75mph. I went 195 miles and had 1/2 a tank. I'm not sure what an increase that is.

Is it known how either does for filtration compared to a conventional paper filter?

I went ahead and ordered the K&N. I know I am just paying for a name but a buddy of mine was able to get me one pretty cheap. I will report back next week once it is installed.
