Airaid Intake?
So you can get an Airaid cold air intake from Advance Auto for $346 + tax and free shipping. I wanted to check and see if anyone here is running one on they're 5.7 Hemi? Pros, Cons, Likes, Dislikes?

Seems like a lot for a noise maker...
Re: Airaid Intake?
I have it and noticed not only a more aggressive engine sound but a bit better higher RPM power. I also noticed a bit lower intake air temperatures. In reality however I got the AirAid to make room for my Thuren shock towers. I'm happy with the setup mostly because it clears my shock towers.
Once I put on my exhaust system I can say for sure the AirAid system enhanced both the tuner and exhaust upgrades. All in all I'm really happy with the improvements.

Re: Airaid Intake?
The dry synthamax filter is awesome. Zero dust in the tube, unlike the oiled K&N that didn't filter the fine dust.
I'm just along for the ride...

Re: Airaid Intake?
That's good to know I was leaning toward the dry filter but read that Airaid recommends the oil filter if in heavy dust conditions and the dirt roads I travel are extremely dusty. What was you reasoning for the dry filter?Cactus Red wrote:The dry synthamax filter is awesome. Zero dust in the tube, unlike the oiled K&N that didn't filter the fine dust.

Re: Airaid Intake?
Save you money and just get a AEM drop in for the stock box.
I have had a few different intake on my hemis, they all make noise and maybe a little bump in HP (up top, lose low end) and MPG.
I just went back the stock box and AEM from a volant with both the Powercore and the oiled filter. I am happier with the stock box for the day to day driving I do, less noise and maybe a little more low end.
If you really want to try an intake and have a 05-08' I am selling my Volant with both filter and extras if you was to try it.

Re: Airaid Intake?
M y experience with oiled filter has been bad. The sensors and throttle body get gummed up with the oil and dust.TrueBlue13PW wrote:That's good to know I was leaning toward the dry filter but read that Airaid recommends the oil filter if in heavy dust conditions and the dirt roads I travel are extremely dusty.

I use the fine mesh prefilter over the filter to kerp the chunky stuff from getting into the pleats.
They are freakin' loud at WOT when towing...

Re: Airaid Intake?
I use the dry filter with the filter sock they offer. I am happy with the setup. I only want a hood that has a cold air duct to the filter. Too much money for me right now but it is really nagging on me. Might be my youth calling me back but I sure do want one!TrueBlue13PW wrote:Thanks for the info do you use the dry filter or the oil?azracer wrote:I have it and noticed not only a more aggressive engine sound but a bit better higher RPM power.
