The best one (in this case, the most expensive) is the K&N FIPK 57-1509 or
the Mopar Performance one which is made by K&N. It's the same unit but has
the Mopar logo on it instead. $236 from Summit or a little more than that
for the Mopar one. Why is this better? The (bigger) airhat allows more air
to the TB. It's a one-piece construction (pipe and airhat) to the filter.
The pipe is also bigger than stock. The filter itself is shielded from the
engine heat by a heat shield. Cooler air = better performance. I know it's
quite a bit more but, as others have already found out, myself included,
there is a big performance difference between K&N and most of the rest of
the aftermarket ones.

My $.02 worth,

Have you checked out the intakes from Intense Performance?

The price is higher, but I think I like their units better. I definitely
plan on getting the Z-Tube when the cash situation allows.

Check them out at www.intenseperformance.com, if you haven't already.
