I was looking at that one. I like it cause it is cheep. That is what I will do is buy a cheeper one from e-bay cause I don't want to spend almost 200 on an ingen or aem. It does not look cold air though but I like it.

well, i think a cold air one would go further down. don't worry though. i had one of those open air round filters on my gmc sonoma and , yeah it got hot unde rthe hood, but it made a decent difference.

to me it looks like a cold air, but my AEM goes down further, so i dont know its alwayz hard to tell from pictures. but as for the info on it.....the 8-10HP gain is a load of BS. AEM dont even give u that much.

I've seen those. They're supposedly cold air, but it puts the filter in the engine bay and doesn't work too grat. It's also make of 18 Guage chrome plated steel and can rust. You'll get what you pay for amigo.

Cheers
Mohawk.
