Tony,
What model years does your kit apply to? Is it only for Durangos and
late model Dakotas, or will it fit up to late 80's and early 90's Daks?

>Hello,
>Glad you think that the KN Gen II is a rip off, I agree. I think your
price

are

of around

>Now about the chrome pipe comment, I am the one making the Quick D
intake kit.
>Let me tell you, it is not that easy. First of all there are not that
many

in bulk.
>Sorry I have to add mark up to the kits but how else can I afford to
buy 15

at cost
>but that is not possible. Thank God, the kits are selling really well
to all
>the Durango guys, other wise I would be out on the street. I only made
a kit
>for the dakota because I had a rental for a month and loved the dak.
It is a
>speedy little monster. I am still thinking about getting a RT.
>If it is a choice, between the 14x3 and the as you call it a chrome
pipe, and
>an open element KN cone, I would go with the cone. The 14x3 sits on
top of the
>engine, and only takes in hot air. I agree, the Air aid kit is not
well
>thought out. I have heard a lot of negative things from people that
have them
>already and would like to try my kit. Oh yeah, my kit is still cheaper
than
>the air aid. I am using polished mandrel bent Stainless steel. That
is not
>cheap, the only way I can afford to sell it is by buying large
quantities. And
>at $159 plus shipping I think it is still the best bang for the buck.
I

the

to know
>you guys. I am running out of things to do to my Durango and you guys
are way

DMLers in
>So Cal. Maybe we can get together and have lunch. I am still not
working
>since my accident so I am open to getting together anytime, anyday. I
would

It

first hand.
>Then if you dont like it, we can take it off and then you can tell
everyone

there right

the line,
>but then again I can carry 7 people on ski trips. I am not trying to
persuade
>any one to get my kit, I just think you guys should give me a chance
before you
>decide that it doesnt work. So far out of the 60 some durangos and 3
dakotas,
>I have never heard any negative comments and hopefully can think of all
the
