Question:

hi i was looking for a intake for my 04 explorer xlt ?

should i go with the short ram air intake or the cold air intake i got a v6

Answer:

Cold air intakeIf you are looking for max horsepower the answer is a cold air intakeCold air is denser and containes more oxygen which means you can burn more fuel resulting in more power. If it is just a daily driver then it does'nt make any real difference except your new cold air intake might impress the chicks.lol. :)
Cold air is the way to go. KN.
Not as much as you might think or calculate. You have to figure in a mileage correction, either use a gps to figure it or mile markers on the road, always remember to add your correction percent before dividing by gallons.
yes, larger, wider tires produce more friction. a body that is high of the ground produces more wind resistance. both these factors will drastically lower fuel economy.
If you do a lot of city driving it will but on the freeway it should help increase the mileage.
