For a real comparison one would have to do back to back dyno runs without and with the cold air intake. Everything I have learn with 3 RAM/Cummins starting in 1994, is that any gain is very minimal. It has been said on many forums for many years, the stock RAM intake and exhaust is good for up to 450HP. Now the 7.3 with the crushed down pipe between the engine and firewall was a good thing to upgrade also with the crushed bend over the rear axle on my 1993 RAM/Cummins. These are isolated issues to particular models, makes and years.

Noise always seem to make you thing you are going faster. As a kid I had a little late 40's A40 Austin with a glass pack muffler. Sounded cool but in reality was dead slow.
