Default Mopar cai?

Is anyone running this intake yet? I see others using the Volant and K&N intakes but not many with the MOPAR unit. If so, how do you like it and do you feel any performance upgrade from it? Trying to find out as much info as possible before I pickup my R/T.

Are u sure it fits the Durango? Very happy with my volant with the airbox being enclosed, but honestly wasn't aware that the mopar was an option!

Does look like it fits the D. I've never been impressed by any CAI that uses a metalized intake tube. Considering that they transfer unwanted heat to the intake air, metal tubes mean that the brand-focus is on appearance versus performance. Go with Volant.

Well the Mopar cai does look the best, IMO. The tube would have to be pretty hot for it to have a negative impact.

+3 on the metal verses plastic debate.

I'll put one on when I get my truck. I have always heard about fitment issues with the Volant.
