However, if you plan to race your car, then absolutely it matters Bc I chase down every possible HP I can! But that's just me. Most all the top brands deliver HP gains for the extra dollar. Your not just buying a name. I am not familiar with a Hennessy CAI so I can't comment on it.

So make your decision based on what you plan to get out of your car. If you really don't race, and probably won't ever mod your car, then hey K&N up and enjoy the mod and the fact that it didn't cost much.

If you fall into the group most guys do and you don't wanna come in 2nd on a race, then you will want to consider a top brand CAI.

I use the ADM Race CAI w/scoop! It killed the K&N and outperformed the CAI inc and it made my car perform to it's maximum!
If I were gonna decide on a 2nd intake, I would try Vararam, Roto Fab, or maybe RacnJason's Cold Rush CAI.
If I am quite honest K&N has always made top shelf intakes, I am not entirely sure why the JRE test came out as they did because I've seen better dyno's from the intakes so I idk what the deal is w/ that

I am not saying the JRE test was bogus but I am saying I've seen better results from the K&N intakes. I don't remember exactly but I think it might have been a different model intake when the test was done? but I am not really sure if I am completely honest.
