Interesting article.

On the flow bench, the stock system flowed a whopping 766.15 cfm. By comparison, the new '05 Airaid Power Stroke intake system flowed nearly 1,000 cfm (997.39 cfm) at 20 inches of water.

Might be comparing apples to oranges but on my 2001 PSD with Gibson cat back exhaust and a scmt @ 60 HP setting.
I tried an AFE and my truck smoked. The filter also rubbed up against the hood insulation.
I also tried a volant(sp?) which I liked. I didn't like the price. So I run a stock air filter.
I've never dyno'ed my truck. It gets 20 + or - MPG empty and tows as much as I can legally tow easily and that's all I am concerned about :cool:
