    Interesting product. I noted a Ram air design on 122. I wonder if you lose air with the other pre-filter design. I think I would just clean my TRD filter more often then run another filter and loose forced air. Just an opinion. Regardless great research!!!:)

    You just gotta watch out which ones you buy if you do. We have the new intake and the ones in that pic are the older style.






    So who's ready to cut some fenders this weekend? Josh? Jordon?

    so was there any tricks to getting it to fit through the stock intake hole in the fender? other than trimming i guess.

    also on a side note...i have rhino liner all over my truck so taking off the fender trim there is out of the question...is this really necessary to take it off?

    what kind of hose was that you used for the intake? looks like dryer vent hose or something. do they make that in a plastic form? whatever it is it is an ideal material for it. and if water ever did get inside it would collect in the ribbing of the hose. inspecting it every once in a while would keep you in the clear.
