K&N Intake System

[Garret813]

I got the same intake kit and had it installed last Friday morning. I did notice an increase in throttle response as well as some engine noise. The 6.2L engine sounded much better and meaner at full throttle. I had a Magnaflow muffler and resonator delete kit installed that afternoon too. The whole vehicle sounds great now! Haven't noticed any mpg increase yet b/c I was stomping it every chance I got. I'm going on a road trip this weekend from Houston to New Orleans. Should be able to see what mpg increase I get after this trip. I'll post any results.

It's in. Took about 30 minutes to install this morning. Did some 0-60 runs stock and with the intake. Dropped almost a tenth on average. The incoming air temp is about 15* colder then stock sitting idling at running temp. No results on MPG increase yet. Seat of the pants throttle response is impressive. Much quicker over stock. I think it is deff. worth the $226 I paid for it. Looks much nicer then stock, there isn't much noticeable increase in engine noise while driving either.

Hope this helps!!

That's awesome. Now I -really- want one!

What kind of car do you have? So you have the 6.2 and not the 5.3? What exact model type did you get?

How does this compare to the GM performance one?

For some reason I was expecting the polished intake tube. Is that a different part number I'm guessing?

Great air intake from filter.

That's the 63-3058 air charger intake.

I probably would rather not have the metal tube.

Why's that?
