Hey Kentucky, regardless of what Ohio said, replacing your Air filter with a K&N Cold Air intake will increase the horsepower on your truck and if you are really in-tune with the feel of your truck you may notice a smoother acceleration. I replaced my exhaust and cold air at the same time and I noticed a difference in pick-up around 300 rpms. It's a good purchase and I think most people on here would recommend it. It comes with directions for an easy install. Good luck!
I added a K&N filter into my truck and got 2 - 3 mpg better than before the filer change. As far as the recharge kit goes it says to clean the filter every 50,000 miles so you have a little time before you have to worry about cleaning your filter.
Yes, a direct replacement to the stock filter. I just got finished with a day of driving and it came out to be 19 and change for mpg and I was driving like a bat out of hell all day. I only wanted something that would "pay" for itself in savings before this summer's trip and $250 for a whole CAI would not save enough money before the trip. I am also look into a new exhaust for the trip.
