I am looking through E-bay and I see two after market air intakes.1 is $69.00 and the other is $242.00.Can anyone tell me why K&N is 242 compared to a 69 dollar one?

It would be easier to compare the two products if you posted the links to them...

im not sure which truck you got, but for my truck, a K&N will free up 10hp, mine is an 05 vulcan v6.

The K&N FIPK kit blows. It does not effectively shield from hot engine bay heat. No you won't get 10hp from it. 2-3 at best on a really good day. Depending on what truck you have I would buy the Volant intake. That intake encloses the filter in a box and sucks the cool air from the stock location. Although if this is the only mod to the truck I wouldn't get any intake. You won't feel the difference. If you want sound take the snorkel out of the box and buy a K&N drop in filter so you can just wash it.

The difference is one is more of a ripoff than the other.

You can probably get double the HP of any of these intakes just adjusting your timing and fuel a bit with the stock hardware.

Not positive what year it started but the timing is non adjustable

You have to remember that most of the people that think an intake alone will get them a 4398728 hp increase would have no idea how to do anything like this.
