Seen most of the pro's and con's. Bottom line is I can get a K&N CAI for about 239.00. Where exactly is this in the ball park that you guys have paid for your CAI's?

New to imports.....DANG this stuff is high!

From where if you don't mind me asking. I am pretty sure shipping is about 15.00. But I am looking for a better deal if possible.

Wow. I went to O'Reillys tonight and they were going to charge me $399!!! I told them for that money I'd buy the Volant and keep some quietness.

Where'd you guys get your K&Ns?

i understand if you really want the CAI then...whatever price YOU think is good should be ok...i understand you are trying to be a smart buyer but if you really think of it...if you really want it you will pay whatever...all in all..you dont NEED CAI you WANT CAI. am i correct? I WANT one too...but i will wait until i pay off the truck before i do any modifications with my truck. my 2 cents....

good luck with your search...and if you do find it cheaper tell me too!

I got the TRD CAI from Sparks. They had free shipping. It bolted right up and is warranteed for the life of the Toyota warranty. Something to think about...

Nope don't need one, just want one. I am just a cheap SOB.

That and I don't believe in letting businesses rake me over the coals for a product. I am doing 2 mods, Cat back and CAI. Just looking to help the gas milage a little, that's all. Toyota dealer sells both products so I am not worried about warranty issues.
