they do help as far as torque...not to sure for the horsies...not noticable...fuel economy is pretty noticable, better used in correlation with a cold air intake kit.

If they work in conjuction with an aftermarket intake. From what I've read, The K&N inatke will not work with a throttle body spacer. But all what it does is just increase the speed of the air flow to the throttle body to help gain a few horses (not much). check out www.truckperformance.com or www.stylinconcepts.com and see what they have.

i got one for pretty cheap on ebay for my 5.7l. i didn't really notice anything, but it may do more for a smaller motor

yeah i have one on my 02 v6 and it really helped in the lower to mid torque range. I was pullin both wheel burn outs after i installed it, which i dont have a locker or lsd and i couldnt do a burn out before i put it in... O yeah also you get better MPG so its a good addition.
