Default Re: Cold Air Kit - Introduction

First, welcome and congratulations!

Second, yes, the type with the "open" filter, not in an enclosure, will make more "air sucking" noise. The kind that use the enclosed box will be quieter.

Now, this is JMHO and that is all. In my experience with other vehicles and after researching on these trucks, unless you are doing other fairly extensive mods, you are not really going to gain anything with an intake. The stock intake flows all the air the motor is capable of using, so anything "freeer flowing" wont matter, because the motor wont use it.

Now, if you are going to add headers, a cam, and some head work, then the motor is going to move more air and a better intake will show some benefit. But on its own, it is just money spent for a little more noise.

Again, this is ONLY MHO and nothing more.
