I read through a post or sticky somewhere that there isn't really a difference between a stock performance air filter and a air intake. The difference is very minimal... unless its a cold air intake..

So my question is.. as you guys can see I'm not very educated about these things..

What would you guys prefer? If any... would there be a difference in any of these?

K & N Air filter
Green Air filter
AFE Air filter

and Fram also i think.

thanks

i have a bias towards k&n, but really you are looking at the same gain for any quality aftermarket filters.

Thanks. That's what I thought also...

Sorry for not knowing any of the terms... but what would cai be?

Yea that's what I though too..

I just wanted to know if you guys here prefer any one of them for the other.. like let's say a better quality or it lasts a little bit longer or anything...

The reason is because I used to look at import tuner magazines and all that stuff... I've seen Green and K & N listed in the pages all over the places.. but rarely AFE and Fram.. so that's why

thanks
