Any one running a cold air intake

[992door]

I was looking at getting some sort of air intake but i was wondering if any of them were worth it? If you have it what are you running and are you happy with it.

I've thought about getting one, if and when I do, it will most likely be an AEM.

Either buy one of the AEM Brute Force intakes or make your own with Lowe's parts and use an AEM filter. They are cool because they don't use oil. When the filter fills up (like going off road in sand dunes) the filter just sheds off the dirt when bumped off. Try that with a K&N. Plus it cleans with soap and water. No need to buy recharge kits!

Becides, get too much oil on your filter and it sucks right through and on to the MAF which causes problems with it. I think that is what killed my first transmission.

made my own with tubing pieces and a few other cheap goodies. i will try to post pics asap. im running a k&n but still happy with it over stock! also added a throttle body spacer.

The only thing the throttle spacer did for me was make a cool whistle on throttle loads. Sounds kinda like I have a turbo under there!

Hey 6chevy9, are you one of the ones that posted a custom setup on FSC?

I ran one on my 99 yukon(obs). It was a Trick Flow which is made by K&N. Same exact unit as my buddies K&N except it was $80 cheaper. I want to get one for my 97 454.

i'd like to see the home mad version. i've also heard the ebay intakes work fine with a different filter.

Just a regular K&N in the stock box will do fine. Anything else isn't going to get you any more power it will only let water in.
