Doesn't fit but works well.

Had to work hard to put them on. The bracket that attaches to the MAF sensor does not mate with the anti-vibration bracket in the heat shield. The filter was too long and had to be squeezed between the intake pipe and the inner wall of the wing. Noticed a slight increase in truck power. It felt like it had better throttle response and power at higher rpm.

Pros
  • Confident
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging

the second only lasted 2 days

I bought two of these devices, the first lasted 2 weeks, the second 2 days. The silicone around the filter attached to the absolute pressure sensor has self-destructed. At first everything fell apart and the filter was dangling in the housing. The second broke in the same place 2 days after installation, but not that bad. Hoppe I don't have any silicone in my nozzles. Return as soon as K&N arrives.

Pros
  • Easy to use

Why pay high prices?

It's easy to have a K&N CAI before my engine fails AND after I get a new engine. My K&N system was stolen in the process. I need an air system now as I no longer had the OEM hardware or the K&N system so I bought this Specter CAI as a quick cheap fix for the situation I was in at the time and to my surprise I wasn't expecting anything from it the Specter CAI was just as good or made no difference, it's a '98 Chevy Tahoe with a 5.7 Vortech. (New motor). Therefore, for the price and quality, I…

Pros
  • Best in class

  • Quality

Fits well, looks good and sounds good. Mounting bolts broke after 2 months

Installation was fairly easy but didn't quite fit my truck; looks a bit stretched, like the intake pipe could be about 1/2 inch longer. After running this intake system for about 2 months the individual mounting bolts/sleeve for the AFM/air filter sheared off and now my sensor and filter just rest on the metal airbox. Since I'm not too happy with the quality, I'm writing to Specter directly to make a decision. Despite the installation issues, I love the intake system and feel it was money well…

Pros
  • Excellent construction
Cons
  • Good but not great
