Want a intake. which one
 
Hey guys just got a 03.

First thng is going to be an intake. and exhaust

All i read is half of you say, the stock intake is good to 500hp. But here has got to be somehting better. the other half say banks or S&B or afe...... i just dont know

I do know banks has there big huge graph that claims there and one other intake are the only ones that lower iats and add power.

I am looking for best MPG and longevity. this is not a race truck, or a truck that is trying to smoke anybody out. It needs to tow and drive me to work everyday.

thanks!!

S&B makes really nice filters and so does banks and AFE. Its hard to beat the price of the S&B's though. But the factory air boxes on the duramaxs flow the best of any stock intake IMO.

agreed, the stock intake and stock filter perform awesome on these trucks, its one of those things you really dont need to mess with

I would go S&B if i were in the market for an aftermarket system.. they are hard to beat for quality and price

Damn S&B are not bad at all!!! IT looks to me like a oiled filter?? I heard hear a lot of people say NO on that??

S&B also offers dry filters as well:tu:

what is your opinion dry or oil??

Its basically whatever you feel comfortable with, there are quite a few guys with both, the S&B filter was designed for diesels and the amount of airflow they require

its usually other brands that cause fouling of the MAF:w2:

personally id go with the banks with the scoop. really lowers IAT and egts. plus its sealed up very nice

I have a Volant on my truck amd so does my grandfather. He had his first which is why i got one also.

At the time of his install he already had a programmer, and we could tell a fair difference. 20-30 hp anyway. on my truck with no programmer i couldnt tell much maybe granted to the fact that i bought the intake and the truck the same day and drove 10 miles through a stinggy town and installed it. But i like the Volant, when i buy another vehicle and put an intake on, it will be a Volant
