The horsepower gain is about the same. I'm looking for ease of installation. Who has air raid and how do they like it ,same for K&N owners. I'd like to know. K&N has always been my favorivte.

If you wipe the grommets & / or studs with a bit of hi-temp grease, next time the air box will be much easier to R&R..
