I am looking for an Intake for my 04, 4.7, 1500. I would like to find one that gives me the most HP and TQ. Any help would be great.

When you get one. make sure it pulls cold air from down low, beside the radiator. There's nowhere in the engine compartment that gets cold air. Good luck.

You should look into getting one of those belt-driven air cleaners. They seem to flow pretty good, and have a nice "whine" as well.

right right...

snipeRT and i were talking about superchargers which are, somewhat a cold air intake. they will give you alot more HP than any bolt on, obviously...

but for regular CAIs, i would check with K&N..or iceman?

Until you compress the air, then it gets hot.
