[QUOTE="Johnny O, post: 1023054, member: 61743"] Thing to remember is that the engine displacement isn't all that big. We don't need to flow big block Chevy amounts of air. The stock intake is already a cold air intake. The cheaper aftermarket intakes are really a hot air intake. On a Gen 1 Trac just pull the silencer out of the airbox, get a K&N replacement filter, and call it good. On a Gen 2 Trac ('07-'10) there isn't a silencer so just use a K&N replacement. I've owned both plus a 4.0 Ranger and never really saw a difference in performance or mpg with the K&N. Best bang for the buck is a lower restriction cat-back exhaust, I did pick up 3 mpg on the highway with that. [/QUOTE]
