    Just bought a drop in filter and want to take my secondary one out. Searched forums, but not finding the answer on how to. If anyone has done it and can give advice on how to and whether to do it, I would be grateful! thanks!

    I looked there, and it was for a 4cy. I clicked the 6cyl section, but don't find anything helpful there

    I've been looking at what everyone has been saying and it looks like it doesn't help the V6 at all. I have left mine so far b/c it seems like to much work for nothing.

    Just get yourself a CAI, and get rid of the whole thing all together.

    I'm very happy with it. If you do get a CAI do it right the first time and get the TRD. I got mine on ebay brand new for 250, they guy usually sells them for 280, but I talked him down and he was willing to keep the price at 250 for the ppl I send to him.

    I destroyed it...C'mon, man...You know how I roll.

    OEM is already a "CAI". Most "CAI" do nothing. I have only found the TRD, and URD give an actual gain in performance.

    Seems the Dynomax Super Turbo gives the best gains (about 6 or so hp), while the Flowmasters cause a loss. Personally, its up to you if you think they are worth it or not. Flowmasters have the best sound, or if you feel you need a few extra hp, and the cost is acceptable, then go for it. :)
