If you have a K&N drop in inside the stock air box, then just remove the tube and "Hemi Hat" and replace with $5 worth of PVC and a $8 boot. Will net you about the same results as doing a full CAI...

There are many posts on this, just do a search...

To be honest, I wanted to go 1.5" because I don't want to put any unwanted pressure on the cv joints, or anything that would cause problems down the road. If a 2" won't cause me any major or annoying issues I'll definitely consider it.

Oh yeah, I thought I was just going to buy a truck and only do a couple things to it. I was basically lying to myself.
