One of my friends recently had a glass pack installed and (IMO) it sounded very nice. What will it cost and cost of install?
Also, I was hoping someone knew a semicheap way to go for an aftermarket intake and what would the hp gain be?
glass packs are cheap. the last ones i got were for one of my old trucks, ran like maybe $20 a peice. but it depends on the size of the pipe and what brand. if you get a glass pack that is a off name it will be cheaper but will last just as well as others, if you buy a brand name like cherry bomb it will run a bit higher. also if your getting long or short version as well.
cant help with intake at all so someone else will have to chime in there.
hp gains will be small but u will notice your engine breathing easier with a glass pack.
but someone might have better info than i.

Semi cheap Cold Air intake >> Check the picture in my signature. It's a homebrew coi made from pvc pipe and combined with the filter, returns better results than most of the coi kits that cost about 200 bucks (mine cost about 65 total; 50 for the filter alone). Im not sure if this is what you had in mind though. The kits sold on ebay are said to be crap, so I wouldn't waste your time on them...
in my opinion, there is very little difference. i had the cheaper ones on my old chevy and it made it sound like a demo truck, at least to me. loud and agressive, but not over bearing. i have heard the higher priced ones i don't think its much of a differnce, just how its built. after time when they wear in they will get slightly louder. not too much but you will notice just takes getting used to. what happens is the glass or material inside breaks in and there for a louder(sometimes deeper sound). just my 2 cents

i currently dont have an intake on mine but heres the sound with the glass pack. i got the 5.2. it dosent sound bad with the GP, good from take off. idel and startup and its not to the point where when crusing you need to max out the radio ither lol. as far as intakes rather you go high price or low they all do the same. just my 2 cents. heres the sound clip of my dodge http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TXg-DLUMtWw
