all you stated was the air raid? What else are you comparing?

Intake will give you a touchier throttle from the get go. Improve mpg a tad, but that's it. Your not going to see more than a tenth difference on the track.

I love my Airaid kit, sounds awsome, looks aggressive, and does save a little on gas if you can keep your foot off the floor board.

If you keep your foot off the throttle on any intake, it will increase your MPG.

But that's just no fun!!

if you want the most power, get the AF1. i have one on order and will be selling my Airaid in a few weeks. Been running the Airaid on my 05 and now 06 and love it. Airaid is a great second best choice though - IMO of course

Didn't notice too much performance increase with my Airaid, just slight mid-range power. It also produced a somewhat loud drone/resonance during highway driving, when traveling up slight hills right before it downshifted out of overdrive. My exhaust seemed louder with it too. I am all back to stock now.
