Cold air intake system

[sisco22]

Hi everyone,
I'm new to the forum. I have a 2008 Yukon XL that I am looking for a cold air intake system for. Not sure what brand to get. Does anyone have any suggestions on one?
Thanks!

Depends on what you are wanting to spend.

price doesn't matter really..as long as its not like $1000. lol. most i've seen is around $200 to 450.

I run the airaid jr. Keeps the stock air box but you get a aftermarket panel filter and smooth intake tube.

Has it helped with the gas mileage at all?

Just installed my AEM Brute Force last week and I love it! I think it helped my mileage a tick but the power and sound increase is noticeable.

Thanks Chris, I was actually looking at the Brute Force for both my Yukon and Titan. I'm going to look for some videos to see how it sounds as well.

Btw...Roll Tide!! lol...couldn't help myself.

I have the bruteforce. It's one of the less expensive intakes but I figured they all serve the same function so why pay another $100 for something that does the same thing. Maybe the other ones look or perform a little better but it wasn't enough to justify the extra cash imo. Mine works fine and looks good so I'm happy with it. I haven't noticed any mileage gains but the truck sounds better and has a little more power. I would suggest getting a tune afterwards like black bear. I have both and my truck is worlds different from stock.

Just a heads up, we are probably going to be doing another intake test here soon. We will put a multitude of intakes on one specific vehicle, and run them on the dyno. We will post up results for you guys to be the judge. We sell all different intake brands, so we really don't have a dog in the fight on this, but we like to see folks happy with their purchase.

You should see some traffic on this soon, as we are getting everything geared up.

Sweet! I'd love to see this. I bought my AEM because someone said it was what Justin had recommended to him.
