[JohnnyWalker22]

Gettin a After market intake for my 01 lb7 wanted to know the best one, previous truck had banks cold air intake with scoop, Seemed legit but was thinking AFE stage two progaurd 7 herd alot of good things about it, Feed me some wisdome

Best filtering, hands down the stock filter

the banks and afe are both very nice, but u can do the mod on ur stock airbox, it will do the same thing... then u can spend your $$ elsewhere..

 

[JohnnyWalker22]

Hope this is ok. If not then mods take it down. But here is the link to the intake mod.

That is interesting. With my setup am I gaining anything by having the Banks intake on my truck??

Not having to buy new air filters all the time. :thumb:

Of course, but performance-wise?

If I bought another duramax, there is so much stuff I wouldn't waste my money on. Aftermarket air box is one of those things. The lbz has the best.

The one thing I liked about my banks with the scoop was my high idle would stay on longer from IAT staying cooler longer. Other then that, never saw much from it

The best intake? An open filter in front of an s475 hanging off your stock charger:thumb:

I would agree. Unless your looking for every last .1 . I picked up .20 and 2 mph with the Banks with the superscoop :driving:

save your money and find out how to do the stock mod.

 

[dmaxman06]

yeah u can do the air box mod but i would allways spend the money on a aftermarket intake because it cheaper to clean the filter then buy filters

 

[Darius6t9]

Then get one of those filters for the stock box and have the best of both worlds.:thumb:
