Default Cold Air Intake

I have a 2004 4.7 and am looking for feedback on cold air intake, should I go with K&N or is there another brand that is better? If so which one and who has the best prices online for the system.

I went with the Aircharger instead of the FIPK.
The best online price I could find was at http://www.4filters.com/

Around town my mpg went up from about 14 to about 16, can't say about the highway though but I would expect a simliar increase.

Basically, every kit will be the same, but I'd go with K&N anyway.

I did see your air intake mod Kikoy only thing is I really want "Cold Air" the way you made yours it is going to be sucking in all the super hot air strait off the radiator.
Also I need it to be "Legal" in California ie EPA certified.

If you don't want to spend a lot of $$$ then I would suggest just buying a K&N drop-in filter. They only cost about 40-50 bucks. You could always buy the whole system later on if you wanted.
