I am thinking of puting a air intake system on my truck and i dont which system would be the best for me. I ahd norrowed it down two intakes the new K&N system and the banks system. If you guys coudl give me some advice that would be great. thanks

 

Make your own, its all a gimmik! I put 4 inch hole in bottom of stock box, drop in kn filter yes kn. Just dont over oil!! Over oiled right out of box.

 

Agreed! Well except for the K&N

 

If you are talking about the air filter box, then I agree. Save the money and make your own. Get a drop in filter and remove the turbo silencer. If you are talking about the intake on the other side of the charge air cooler than I recommend the ATS or the CFM+. Either way this mod won't get you much without doing others as well. IMHO You are better off starting with a tuner.

 

Yes box, can use any filter of choice.Intake on motor just port it out yourself you can get the stocker to flow pretty good!

 

I made a ****** whistler off this site I love it it was alot cheaper then buying and it sings like crazy. good luck which ever way you do it

 

If you do not want to modify your stock setup, and be able to return it to stock later, then I suggest an AFE MegaCannon.

It comes with a new intake tube and air box, you also get a pro-guard 7 AFE re-usable filter, with all the neccesary clamps and hardware. I looked at one that was installed on a new 6.7 at the Dishman Dodge lot, very nice!
(you can substitute a Cool Blue Hose in place of the intake tube)

It is far better than either of your two choices of K&N or Banks.

I love my S&B, for the money.... its a GREAT UNIT!!

 

i agree the S and B is a good buy and the turbo sings at around 1200 rpm

 

Like said above...Cut a 4" hole in the bottom of the stock box, add about 2' of drain pipe to the bottom, gut the intake tube and remove the silencer ring. Costs maybe $10 and works just as good as a $400 intake. Oh yeah, and add a free flowing drop in filter.
