And yes brando that is correct.
It took me a long time to finally settle on K&n and the ability to raise my hood at a couple of local car shows upcoming this year was the big motivator for me.
As far as a comparison between the FIPK and FTRA now that i have installed mine I can see where the FTRA may be able to bring in cooler air from its location but I feel the K&N setup overcomes this by being capable of moving a larger volume of air, and yes its true there is a weight reduction with the FIPK (probably wieghs less than half) But i feel that is still a minimal advantage.
My advice now, if you have made no changes yet the whisper lid is probably the best bang for the buck. If you have already gone the whisper lid/slp cai route id say save the $$ and stay with what you got.But if you want to "kick it up a notch" I feel the K&N is the finest set-up out there for us.
