We were. Unlike those who brought up warranty, TnP was using EGT's as an example of another area where many of the "automotive engineers" here don't really know what will damage an engine yet like to spout out figures or tell you what is bad just like they do with air filtration.
My point is ALL threads morph from original post. No need to even comment on it!

The latest generation of Ram CTD's already come with a "cold intake" from the factory. It would be pretty hard to improve in its design.

Good points. Good points indeed.
Much like I have seen lots of people on here talk about very high EGT's. And when I ask what is high they state 1,300 F. I ask if they have ever run over 1,300? They state anything over 1,300 and you will melt a piston. I ask how do you know that if you have never ran over 1,300 degrees? Much like your point about filtration.

Although if anyone does have data showing how much engine life is decreased by using one of these filters then I would love to see it.
I think that is a rhetorical question.
In other words:
#1. How much dirt gets by?
#2. What kind of dirt? Sand? Volcanic ash? Is it soft or hard?
I think you get the point.
I know you don't want to talk about filtration but here is a pretty good study about air filters and what they do....or don't do.
Enjoy.

I don't know if they are better or not, but I wouldn't take the chance for what little gain, if any there is. Honestly, with the power today's trucks make in bone stock form, I'm fairly certain I wouldn't be able to tell if one was making 5 more HP.

Does anyone have any data showing how much engine life is lost due to the amount of dust gets by aftermarket filters so I can get an idea? Is it 1k miles, 10k miles, or even 100k miles lost using an aftermarket filter versus stock?
