The only other design I was considering is the Volant cold air intake that's coming out in a week.

I have a CAI and I haven't noticed a loss in either top or bottom end.. more gain then anything. My friend had the FIPK on his truck and noticed major gains..

Good Review Gearbox!

That volant thing looks kinda of...interesting...

Does anyone know the bolt sizes for attaching the filter? I'm getting a new one but the bolts on my old fipk had rusted. I wanna get some stainless steel ones

Are you Zoroastrian? I dated a Zoroastrian for a long time, and she told me one of the edicts they live by is Good Words, Good thoughts, Good Deeds.
