There's a lot of other things your time would be much better spent on. Keep in mind when you supercharge this will all have been a waste.
The blower is still some years off if I even decide to go that route... I am a die hard NA guy so the stroker might be the route I go even though it will cost me more for less gain.

might be a stupid question but seems to me that the OEM set up is designed as a cold air intake....what does AFE offer above and beyond just putting a K&N hi flow filter element in the stock location? Hard to believe they can do much better than that.
