Default Power loss...

How much power would be lost by using a drop in filter such as Spoon or K&N in combo with a good header and exhaust instead of a CAI such as AEM or Comptech with the same header and exhaust?

there would be a small difference but not much...

the biggest restriction on factory intakes is the filter element..

so changing the filter element only would net great results..

<~~~had comptech drop in and loves it. Doesn't gain much but it helps. Plus you save $ in the long run because you can wash it and not have to buy ther 20$+ OEM filters every so often.
