Just wanting to say that I am in the process of buying a K&N intake from Nick and he is giving me an awesome deal. I've known Nick for a good time now and has been an awesome guy to know. He is going out of his way to get me this product and I can't say enough how pleased I am with the way he runs his buisness. As long as he has the part I want I will buy from him anytime. I would definately goto him if you need something for you truck. He cuts prices down below most other online sites. I was looking at the other intake he carries and he was going to give me a great deal on it, but he just recently started carrying the k&n intake and it is only a little bit more and from what i've read on k&n's website you will make 10.3hp to the ground! now that in a 3.0 will be pretty noticeable and at a good cost. So I can't express enough that you should check in with Nick first before you buy from any other website.

You will NEVER get 10+ HP on a 3.0 from an intake alone. You'll need exhaust and MAF mods at the very least to get there. Once the resistance of the intake is eliminated, the other resistances dominate.
Take a good look at how much space there is, for instance, around the MAF sensor for air to flow. The space is TINY. Also, the TB doesn't quite open all the way and you can half shaft it as well to make it less resistive. Finally, a good exhaust will help.
The 10.3 number is NO DOUBT what you will get from putting the intake on IF you've done the other mods.
I would still get the intake, it sounds like a great deal -- but be advised so that:
A: you're not disappointed
B: you don't think the K&N sucks (it doesn't)
C: you don't get mad at Nick!

Considering Dyno's are run with the hood up and a fan blowing at 60mph, I have no doubt that 10HP was achieved. Real world conditions where the hood is shut and hot air is going though the filter tends to negate it.
04sonicedge, you do anything to that F250. My brother has one- 4door long bed 4x4. He has ran a 14.01 in the 1/4 with bully dog programming, intake, and exhaust. He added propane injection but hasn't run it again.

The 2005 F-250 crew cab diesel is running a Bully Dog power pup with out look monitor, 4wd, and Banks Monster exhaust and new tranny update. It ran last at 13.8 in the 1/4-mile with NO traction.

Thanks for the warning john. I have delt with k&n before and been nothing but pleased with it. I do right now have exhaust. Its a SI/DO flow orig 40 ran out the back. I went from having lightning style exhaust and saw an improvement from that.
Now when I had my v6 stang before this I had gotten exhaust didn't notice and huge difference, but when I got the CAI it was like the engine had a whole new life to it. I know it wont be that dramatic of a change on my truck. However if I see atleast half of what I did on the stang I will be happy
