K&N drop ins and HPS tubes.

I've yet to see a back to back dyno where any of the SRI's or CAI's net better gains than the drop ins + tubes, and in any case even if the gain is 3-5 more whp, that is NOT worth the 2-3 times greater price tag IMO.

HPS tubes = ~$110
K&N drop ins = ~$90
Total = ~$200

Stillen G3 = ~$525


When there's no clear evidence of significantly better gains and what evidence there is points to an improvement of less than 5 whp, that's a lot of extra pay for very little additonal play.

Just sayin...

I'm sure they look and sound cool tho'.

Shado, I will do whatever you say. I don't want to be shot in the head over a plate of pasta.

It has been known to happen.

I am very interested in the tubes, already got the drop ins. Might you have some pics or some part #'s, and what you did exactly?

Thanks!

There's also a set made by Cobb that should work exactly the same way -- just get whichever one is cheapest.
