I am not arguing at all because, aren't you some sort of scientist (not just the mad variety either)?
But my question is, if you compare the volume or air allowed on the aftermarket 2"(?) air filter vs. pulling the air through the stock air cleaner housing (oblong 4" wide opening), wouldn't it be less restrictive? Even if the filter itself is 4" tall it can only pull so much air. Right?
To the original poster, NICE TRUCK! Even if the paint job might not be the best, I bet it looks great from 10 feet. And 99% of the time thats all you need.
