Hey guys.
So I got a bit of money for my birthday and am looking at putting a new Air Intake System in. I have the 5.0 V8 so that limits my options for CAIs for whatever reason.
I know that there is the Airmax that MoutaineerGreen did a write up on. My questions is does anyone else have this intake? If so, how has it worked for you? Does anyone have side-by-side comparisons of that intake with others?
Obviously, the MAC is popular, and I imagine, for good reason. I know the Airmax has a heat shield that bolts down to where the OE box did, does the MAC have that as well? Does anyone buy into the idea that Airmax's internal rifling of a tube can help the air move better? It seems to me that all that would do is slow the air down, because now not only does it have to travel to the throttle, it has to spin while doing it.
The main reason that I am currently leaning towards the Airmax a bit is because it's made of steel, has a heat shield and has support at the filter end as well. Does the MAC have all these things? I know a lot of people here run MACs, are you all pleased with them?
Thanks in advance!
