K&N or Moroso are the most popular

Like I said there most popular, SLP isnt that great due to the heating up of the metal they use.

again, loser.

but k&n and moroso are virtually identical. the slp claims to give more power due to dual cone filters, but i dont see how because with two small filters its the same as one large one. plus the k&n and moroso have the same material as stock intake junk so it matches...and with me i have to match.

thats what I have, and truthfully I can say it isn't going to make a difference between mine and a K&N, Moroso, or whatever else.

The metal may be heating up but that's because the heat is escaping and not going into the engine. The plastic intakes hold the head in and let it go right into the tb. My radiator heats up to but even though it's getting hotter it's actually cooling the engine.
