Okay, I'm newly back into to the performance truck scene. What is the performance gains to adding one of these? Is it similiar to a ram air induction? I am assuming it will allow better air induction, but will it increase fuel mileage, or is it strictly a performance item?
Thanks.

I read an article in Truck Trend today that stated that the K&N system adds 17hp (per their testing). It lists several different vehicles/hp tests. Good luck! Originally Posted by XS ive
