Installed the AIRAID intake and Seafoamed. Very easy to install. No idea yet on the amount of horsepower or mpg difference. I could definitely tell the difference in the pickup on highway. And my girlfriend says it sounds more "enginey". So it must be noticeable.

Not the prettiest, but not the ugliest. Might change them though.

I never saw a mpg increase when I had mine. definitely more "enginey", but not much other than that.
