Seriously, go to ebay and buy the cheapest short ram "AEM knockoff" you can find. I got one shipped for $60 a few months back.

Then go to AEM or K&N and buy the cone filter that will fit...

You will have an official short ram intake for 1/3 the cost of the name brand deals.

just buy this, then buy an AEM cone filter that fits the Brute Force for our model and you will have a brute force for a fraction of the cost

thats what I did and I couldnt be happier

Biggest diff you will see is a open element(like the AEM) or closed element(like the volant) You will pick up some type of gain with them, I would however try to find a good used one, or like stated make your own.. I picked up my AEM when I had it for pretty cheap, it was brand new..
