Well I called banks, probably going to go with their cai, since it actually goes in the wheel wall with a closed intake and has a opening right behind the headlight for more air. Sounds more efficient the the hai plus you get the sound and more performance. Which is what I want. Now I can answer a question I seen alot about The super scoop. Reason we can't get one for our model is, they don't make one for it and the reason for that is, because the cai already pulls in enough fresh air from the wheel wall and behind the headlight. So if you want a super scoop you sol unless you make your own. I do not know if this apples to the 09 up aswell.

Well I see violent makes a closed intake with a scoop for our trucks but it says you have to trim some of the front valiance. I have a fx2 so that's a no go. S&b does make a closed intake aswell but don't know much about it. Banks is higher then both but seems more promising then the other two because the opening are alot larger. But can you tell me out of all three which one makes more power?

Guaranteed more horse power would be a supercharger.....

The least agressive intake is the K&N
The most agressive is the jlt ram air intake

Those others you mentioned fall somewhere in between....

The most economical air intake mod is the gotts mod.....

There are other restrictions that need to be addressed also....tb size, tb inlet on the manifold, cmcv, intake runner size, head ports and valves, cam duration, timing, headers, catalytic converters, ....with these your engine can only take in so much air.....then add in the limits of the senors functions

So a jlt ram air is the probably the best intake for our trucks? I already got a gryphon so I'll get custom tunes once I buy more parts. I won't install the cai until I get the tunes so it doesn't run lean.
