Default Cold air intake

Whats the best air intake to get? My trucks stock other then a raptor pump and big line kit, i was wounder will a cold air intake help alot? My turbo rings already taken out, i was wanting to just get a good air filter cone and put it on and just leave the stock tube , what do yall think will help most?

From what everyone tells me you're better off running the stock setup. It gets the coolest air.

A mechanic buddy of mine also told me the stock setup is good up to 500hp.

Others will tell you to do a BHAF and don't look back. Or just order an intake kit.

Just depends on who you ask. My buddy has always run an aftermarket intake on his trucks.

Just get a BHAF. Most aftermarket filters let dust past them into your engine and you have to keep oiling them which is about 20 bucks every couple of months
