Airraid MIT?

Black Bear just did dyno testing on 5 different CAIs and the Airaid MIT won over the rest. Not only is it better performance wise but it's also cheaper than the others they test iirc. Following the test I decided to pick one up for myself. I can definitely feel a difference in throttle response starting from ~1700 rpms and up. It's nothing dramatic but any improvement is a plus. The biggest and best difference though is the sound. I have the Corsa dB exhaust and before the MIT it was throaty all throughout the rpm range. The MIT added a bit more bass under load, especially during WOT. Now the truck sounds more powerful. As far as picking up MPGs I track mine with every fill up and haven't noticed much difference, maybe a .2/.3 at best but I'm also in the throttle more. This is my 4.8l by the way.

I've got both the full airaid intake and the airaid jr kit/hacked air box. They both use identical MIT tubes. That said there is no difference performance wise between the two. Just depends which you think looks better under your hood.
 
I have the jr kit, and LOVE it, I have those ricer looking models, I bought airraid solely because it looks OEM, I chose to stay with the stock box, because it WORKS! Drop in a filter and go, the box mod imo isn't worth my cutting it up on a stock truck. it flows well enough imo
 
Just got my MIT in yesterday along with a k&n filter in the stock box. I based my decision off of bbp's test results and price vs gains. Definitely worth the money imo.
