I hope it's nicer!
...that's quite a bit more expensive than the Airaid($200). I know some members here are using the AirForce One, but can't remember any noticable differences between the models. Are you hearing of bigger improvements with the AirForce One? Just curious...
BTW, I'm extremely pleased with the sound and performance of the Airaid.

Regarding the Gibson exhaust mods, I noticed in the sound samples Familyride linked to, that there was a slight hesitation when the engine was revved with the Gibson exhaust. I installed a Flow Master cat back on another vehicle I owned and experienced the same negative affect. Has anyone noticed hesitation with a Gibson exhaust?

I'm not sure what part you're hearing but so you know, most of the revving was being done fairly slow and somewhat gradual. I wasn't punching it quick and hard. I have what I think is very good throttle response.
Actually got better TR with the mods.
