Default Best air intake

I have searched and found a few things but still wanted to make a thread. Whats a good cold air intake for my 05 duramax? It has a sticker on it that says K&N but the previous owner took it off. I usually like K&N and would like to get another one but there is like 5 different kinds. Thanks in advance for your time guys.

hi, whats the engine size? I can get you K&N, Afe, or AEM. Just let me know what your looking to get out of the intake and your budget. As an official sponsor on this site I can also give you a really good deal since you are a forum member. Name is Ari, simply message me or call (619)285-3916.

In my 2500HD 6.0 I ditched the stock intake tube for the below setup

Its got a nice sound and my AITs are never more than 10 degrees of outside temps. I put the tube on the same time I was tuning up the truck and having BB tune my truck so I cant speak to any gains. What I do like is its simple, sleek and keeps my stock filter box.

Can't believe no one said this yet- The best intake is a turbo or supercharger. Lol
