You are 100% wright sir! I knew this but wasn't going to start anything. I'm mainly looking at the air intake. Talked to a few people and I like the s&b. Seems to be the best quality at the best price. Plus the washable filter vs. the oem at 50$ a wack. Thanks for the input. I'll report back with a mpg update after mods.
? Where do you buy the filters at? 
should be able to get them for around $20....

So far all I've found up here is the wix filters nobody has a fram. I went with the s&b. Whole shabang for 300$. With scoop and prefilter. From what I've read and the people I've talked to the best way to get milage out of the 6.7 is to give it more air. I've already got a 5" turbo back exhaust so this is the next step naturally. Really eager to see how more responsive this new Throttle body will be.

The grid heater from what i have seen takes place of glow plugs like the psd has.
The shop I worked at had an old 94 Ottowa yard goat, turbo and jacket water intercooler but no heater grid or ether. Even with 26,000 hours and extreme abuse that thing had no problems starting in 0*f weather. Now when it got down into the negatives, it would take a shot of ether to get the initial fire going.

This is not accurate information. The poster is in Alaska. He NEEDS a grid heater. It does not provide much resitriction and its benefits far outweigh its drawbacks.

Hey Grrr, where do you get your filters, and what brand do you use?

Actually, open that up to everybody, where do you get your air filters, what brand do you use, and how much do they cost?

I dont get mine here...but lots order from Geno's Garage - Dodge Cummins Turbo Diesel Parts and Accessories genuine Fleetguard filters
For related info that could be useful. 
Anyway Geno's has Fleetguard listed at $25 and Mopar at $30, maybe shipping on top of that.

True. That is why I oppted for the new tb. It has a built in heat grid. While allowing more air flow.
