Re: UPD vs K&N (FIPK)
Was this on the same day? It doesn't look like it due to the temps. Different days could account for different dyno #'s, so could bad gas. Was it a clean K&N or dirty? Clean or dirty UPD? In no way am I bashing, just letting the guy at the top hear everything. I don't think there is really enough difference in the two to worry about, so either one works fine .
Why did you write all that other CRAP all you had to write was I don't think there is really enough difference in the two to worry about, so either one works fineThere was no need for that other <img border="0" alt="[bullshit]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_bs.gif" />

No it was not on the same day. If it were, the UPD #'s would have been better. Both kits were less than 1 week old at dyno days. Ask anyone who knows me or has seen my truck to even find a dirty part on it. What I can promise about a box system is that the filter stays cleaner longer and is not nearly exposed to bad weather like an open element filter is.
No need in anymore name calling either.
