Looking at JennaBears dyno chart in the CAI sticky I went out and bought a K&N drop in filter for my 07 VortecMax. Now I am looking around for an air intake tube. So far all I've come across is one from Airaid called Modular Intake Tube and individual components from Spectre.
The K&N filter cost me $60 and if I buy the Airaid MIT it will be another $121.90. So while still less expensive than a full kit costing north of @300 it's not quite the bargain bin savings I was looking for.
The Spectre kit looks to be the lest expensive route but damn there are alot of parts. How do I know which ones I'll need? Trial and error? Or is there a "kit" for my particular truck?
Lastly is, did my OEM air intake flow more air in than my current stock exhaust setup can push air out? I'm curious where the biggest flow restriction is. I'm not in a hurry to get an aftermarket exhaust as I would like to team that purchase up with a set of LT headers.
Thanks ya'll.
