i hope not, ive seen various aftermarket intake manis for our trucks. i know the stock ones flow good but they are so ******** ugly

Save your money and put a blower on there!

Or the new FAST truck intake.....I think the blower before the cam.

Highrise intakes are not good for trucks. Highrise intakes are for High RPM engines where the power is in the 6000+ rpms. You will be slower off the line than a smart car trying to move the weight of a truck.

makes sense, looks like its just going to be a cam in tune then!

No need unless you're pushing some boost. A cam and blower is better bang for the buck. More on a budget? just do a cam.

I have headers, CAI, exhaust, underdrive pulley, and a cam and I picked up about 100 wheel HP. All the mods cost round $2K for everything and I did the installs myself. Oh and a good tune.

Waste without a cam. Wont work on his 01 unless he is a rare one with drive by wire.
