Default newb intake question

I got my license a couple weeks ago, and got a 1999 gmc sierra 4.8 was wondering what intake I should get and were to get it from to make it a little faster. $500 is probably my cap, I heard from a friend the AEM bruteforce is good, should I go with that.

Welcome to PT.net!
An intake really wont make your truck any faster. Spend the $ on a tune. Nothing will help as much!
