CAI!!!!Which is the best, Why?
I am getting paid in a few days and am gonna get my CAI, been reading up on a few favorites but still undecided. Whats your opinion.
Also, is their any real benefit (power wise) between a AFE dry and oiled filter?

They all do the same thing...many will say to get a dry filter over a wet/oiled one bc the oil will eventually get built up on your MAS, I ended up with an airaid...simply bc it was cheapest! hahaha...I have a K&N on my Jeep and I like them both the same. Just get what u think looks good...I'm pretty sure I didn't gain no 17hp or 10ftlb of torque or nothin like that...I wouldn't get it expecting gains of 3mpg either...good luck, once you put it on you'll love the sound of that 5.7!!!

Had a K&N and had a terrible high pitch noise when I got on the throttle. Replaced it with a Volant and have had no problems. Sounds awsome with the dual JBA exhaust.

just replaced my buddy's (boring sounding and non power improving) volant with a K&N .. he loves the sound and performance, just like me.
