wow no one has replied yet
those prices are all insanely high for a simple tube for air to go through
you didn't mention what year/engine dak you have, personally i'd make my own tube with 3" PVC for $5, mine has held up great for years, but if you got money to blow....
buying a hood just to ram air in there is ok but you aren't going to start winning races with just that...

yeah, it'll take more than an intake to boost power noticably, but the intake is the best place to start. I went with the K&N, through a dealer I was working for that sold K&N, got it at wholesale price, at 240. great set up and looks great too. I had mine painted in that chamelion paint, so from the left it looks blue, from the front it appears purple, and from the right it looks green, and added the jeep "V8 5.9" emblem to the top. looks great, but only seen with hood up... it basically boils down to the fact of how much you're willing to spend, and how much hp you want to gain. "HP costs money"

you'd be lucky to gain 5 horses off an air tube
this is a mass produced truck not a nascar vehicle it ain't gonna do that much
