The Mopar version is a K&N. They just changed the sticker and added $50.

So why bother to purchase a QuickD or K&N Gen II when the Mopar version puts
out greater HP to rear.

That's what a Dyno does.

If it's the K&N/Mopar model, it was Dyno proven to give an extra 22HP at the
rear wheels (from K&N). We had installed one on my buddies Jeep G/C SE
(5.9L) and you can noticeably feel the difference.

Just curious...what about it is false advertising? Do you have one of
these and know how it performs?

Yes, that kind of gain does seem a bit high but let's get some
real-world numbers before throwing accusations around. Maybe they came
up with something that really can pull that off.
