but there are plans for mods to make it work with in those years too

so its a possibility they just need a month to finish it up

you know boss3.0,fredness's idea thats in the works ?

Right but I believe the question was whether the Hillbank kit would fit a stock 07.

so this should fit my truck right? it looks like it will.

Can you tell much of a differents between the stock intake and this one?
It looks like it seals up good to so no hot air from the motor will be sucked in.

The more expensive CAI's are the whole intake tube and are usually CARB certified.

I just cut a hole in my stock airbox and put a k&n in it.

Sounds pretty mean. Costs almost nothing.

i got one off ebay and put it in. Seems to be great, only notice was smoother shifting in the automatic and higher revs but other than that no reall big power gain. I would recomend it for the price
