ok here is the poop on air intake filters.. a motor is just a big pump, air in air out, so the aftermarket air intake market is the more air in the better the performance. Well that is true, only if you can get that extra air out. So will adding just a afe cold air intake make a difference, like they claim up to 7 horsepower, It just may, if you add the $3k akropovic exhaust, now the motor has lots of clean unrestricted air in and it can get all that extra hot exhaust out.. So now you say restricted??? Well now we have another great invention, a free flow exhaust port. or a header, now these allow the hot gasses to exit the motor faster thus getting rid of the heat better, and heat is our enemy here boys.. Now we have our $500 afe cold air intake, $3k exhust, and $500 header,, NOW ask me if you notice a difference.. This should be your first mod for more horsepower as now you have a much much more efficient pump, So add all the aftermarket horse power add ons now as you know no matter what you due, the motor is able to breath a lot better.
