Cold Air Intake 4.0 SOHC

[Mjaga251]

I've been doing some research on Cold Air Intakes...Ive looked on the forum and still have some questions.

First, has anyone seen a major difference between the K&N intakes vs. the Mac intakes? Only one I see is the price...
Any other systems anyone recommends?
Also, has anyone purchased the "Tornado"?? and is it worth the $70?
Just want to look into my options, since I found the K&N for only $200 on truckperformance.com.
The site for the Tornado makes it sound like a great product, especially with the gas prices going up to $3.30 around here, but was just wondering if anyone got it? http://www.tornadoair.com/

Thanks,
Mike

i would just go for a cold air...its hard to get good gas mileage with a suv.

I have tested both and found no difference except price; I currently use the MAC.

I have dyno tested as well as evaluated it for gas mileage. This device does nothing for either power or mileage.

tornado = waste of money

you can buy the tools and supplies for about 15 bucks to make the tornado and the concept is worthless anyway...
