No that was the OP that asked about stacks and intakes, I was simply giving a rant about Banks

400 bucks is just a lot of money for an intake. Just buy another aftermarket intake (like an S&B or whatever) and when at competitions, yank the headlight like the Dmax boys do, and you'll have plenty of fresh, cold air, im sure more than the banks gives

 

One pin and my headlight is out, and with the PPE airbox mod the cold air will go right into my airbox.... take that BANKS!

 

banks is way overrated...i agree. stock is good, if you absolutely want an aftermarket i would go with afe or s&b for the intake. as for stacks i wouldnt go any smaller than 5" and when i did mine i wished they were atleast 6". theres lots out there on those. grand rock, mbrp, silverline...

 

I HAVE 4IN TURBO BACK INTO 5IN AUSSIE STACKS.... MINE ARE GRAND ROCK FROM BLACK CLOUD DIESEL.. GOT THE COMPLETE KIT AND INSTALL WAS EASY. AND WOULNT GET THE BANKS INTAKE A GUY THAT COMES IN HERE TO THE DEALER SHIP HAS IT. AND THE WORDS OUT HIS MOUTH WERE ITS NOT WORTH THE MONEY. HE WISHS HE NEVER GOT IT... BUT JUST THOUGHT ID THROW THAT OUT THERE

 

Sounds good but it just seems that having a headlight out while driving down the highway is very impractical. I do alot of highway driveing, im not going to be stoping and putting my head light back in everytime i need it. so when i say IMO banks has the best intake, its IMO. i see the scoop being better for me rather than removing a headlight.

 

Well you're free to have your own opinion, we're just giving you ours

 

Haha how come he doesnt own the Banks Intake w/ scoop. With Banks you pay for the name. S&B is where its at for your buck getting mine this friday.

 

you should check out a bill's intake for it, they are good priced and work very well from what i have seen. can be bought with an s&b filter on them, and the tube goes from a 3.5 inch to the 5 inch that they are developing. they make the turbo sound like a jet though

 

idk but when im cruising down the highway and my IAT is the same as the ambient temp, that's very good. modded stock does not do that

i used to run their super scoop but with 35's and stock height its not working so well

 

the LBZ airbox is much different than the LB7 intake box....
