ROTO-FAB COLD AIR INTAKE or K&N???

I am thinking about a little mod on my intake, Is the roto-fab $100 worth over K&N???
does this system really gives some more power?
tks.

I have a K&N and so do some of my buddies. It was recommended to me by a sponsor on the forum so it's what I went with.
I feel like there's not much of a huge difference from brand to brand.
IMO, go for the one that looks the best in your engine bay. :p

Roto-fab, I think the hood seals better with the roto-fab than the K&N. I've been very happy with mine.

Help

Personally, I wouldn't act so pissy if someone is just trying to help you. That's all.

Roto-Fab is well worth every penny. You can choose various colors (even your cars color) it is very easy to install, plus it sounds GREAT. You can also get a Windshield Washer Relocation Kit from Roto-Fab that allows you to get more air to your Cold Air Intake and also add a ADM RAce Air Scoop. One other bit of information, when the K&N CAI's came out they had some problems with causing CEL's and they had to do a re-design. Before I got my Roto-Fab I had been waiting for the Air Intake from Chevy (which was NEVER released) and I did alot of research on the various CAI's on the market.

Between those two Roto-fab hands down. Take a good look at the JRE comparison that way it gives insight to you for the various types all tested similarly.

Roto-Fab all the way

I installed the Roto-Fab and it increased the car's performance significantly and it looks wicked. Very high quality product.
