Guys, I hate to be the d bag here. I’m all about performance, and most of all efficiency. Efficiency come power gains. 5th gen factory intake is pretty top notch. Unless you plan on going big with cam , head work, internals, Forced induction, Ect.
I investigated & took a few pics and factory set up is way more efficient then previous gens. Besides the crap additional carbon/restriction filter. Huge surface area on air filter and intake box itself and large intake port. Even the factory air filter do will wonders.
I’m not telling how to spend your money.its all up to you all. If it makes ya feel good then do it. That’s all I can say
All I can do is guild you. For power/efficiency gains look at headers/y pipe even before cat-back stuff. Tat will e your most gains. Also the numbers of above . Those are 4th gen power numbers with headers/ & y pipe specially tuned to the vehicle.
