Well , unless someone can give me ruough estimate of what hte FABM can give
me in numbers , I think I'll use that Money and try the Airaid .

If ya wanna take it to that extreme , then why should I try an K&N of the
FABM ? Up to this point I have heard nothing more than what it "feels" like
by everyone else .

I guess I'll just take my chances .

PEACE
