I never did the usual first mod of a cold air intake because I didn't see the sense of spending that kind of money for a couple of hp. However, now that I'm planning on a KA-T, I will need an intake so I'm going to need some help. I don't know the first thing about them, like what it takes to fit one to the MAF. Am I right in saying that any cone filter should work with an adapter?
I'm sort of on a budget so I didn't want to spend a lot, but I would like something that is not restrictive and is washable. I noticed on Ebay that you can get a complete intake system with a K&N filter (examples http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayI ... gory=42604 , http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayI ... ename=WDVW) for a decent price. Are these real K&N??? The prices seem really low for a K&N. If so, I guess I could get one of these, scrap the tube and just attach to the MAF.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Are you serious! I priced them here in Canada and they are usually over $200 for a K&N cone with adapter (retail). That's not too bad then.
grady, I know I won't need the kit when I go turbo, but I was just thinking I could put it on in the meantime. It's going to take me a long while to get all of the parts.
Thanks.

totally understand that, ive had this little air filter on for months and still havent sold my truck to get the turbo yet. It may sound dumb but you can feel the difference in pickup with the filter and it adds so much sound to the engine. I just woundn't want to go spending alot of money when it could be useful down the line. MO
