Airaid jr intake install ! - 2018 silverado - 

S&B Cold Air Intake on my 2017 Silverado. Can definitely hear it and no disappointments in performance at all. Highly Recommend.

I got the Airaid MIT just the tube and no filter, diy ported my throttle body to get rid of the tip in lack of power, cleaned up the underside of the airbox lid, and cut out the baffle in the inner fender. It probably picked up 3 or 4 hp but I was mainly doing it to increase volumetric efficiency for gas mileage in the long run. I cut the out the inner fender and airbox first and drove it a few days and I can say that cutting out the inner fender and airbox to match made a bigger increase in noise and felt power than the tube did.

Great video man!! Appreciate the shout out, update on my open box K&N coming soon!! Looking to see your results too!!

Same truck, just put a k and n intake on it definitely made my flow masters quieter and I haven’t noticed an Improvement on mpgs pretty much a waste of $300

My 04 Avalanche,. . I did install. K&N filter. When it was new it does make a big difference in hp Gaines , however it is already a cold air box pulling through the fender to outside of the engine compartment,. The intake plentium boot does two things , first it's a vacum plentium, second it's shape is made to derect air under and through the intake manifold for added cooling . Leave it on

I run a full S&B intake system and you defenility hear the intake and notice a power gain, much more responsive. also S&B is good because the maf sensor does not change locations from factory setup. they also give ya a rubber airbox plug for bottom if your in a dusty enviroment or you can remove it your choice.

Love your vids man. Keep up the work. I’m building my 2016 Silverado and getting nothing but great advice from you 👌🏽

I had a Airaid cold air intake with a throttle spacer. Magnaflow exhaust and super chip tuner with my 5.3 Sierra. It sounded like a beast and wasn’t bad on the highway. Fuel mileage wasn’t any worse that I noticed.

S&B cold air. The best out there.

Borla ATAK and S&B CAI on my 2018 silverado 1500 ltz z71 midnight edition...absolutely love it.

You are full of hot air. Get a gauge and check the air intake temps . Full blown cold air intake has the coldest intake temperature. Stock is the hottest. The factory box absorbs lots of heat.

I can really hear my cold air inductions! I like it ALOT

I was thinking about doing this set up but ended up going with an AFE cold air Couldn’t be any happier with it, Close box and rumbles nice

My K&N on my silverado barks, even with a straight piped exhaust.

Cold air inductions has an intake with a closed box with a heat shield. You hear the intake with it. It's a pretty good set up.

This is the same thing as just buying the k&n filter from autozone and putting it on the stock intake . Should of went with the s&b dry filter CAI , it’s a closed box and uses the same vent holes as the stock air box . That’s what I have on mines and I totally notice a difference . You can hear the air being sucked when u floor it

Damn you need some long tube headers to a borla. Instead of that popping clappy Carolina exhaust.

I love my K&N on 2014 sierra sound amazing and you def notice a difference in performance..

I have a 2018 GMC Sierra that I just put cai intake on from cold air inductions absolutely love it I did have it Dyno tested picked up 18 whp after intake install. I did also put a jlt 3.0 catch can on it as well would be very surprised to see how much oil that catch can actually catch’s Also picked up 3 mph on a 1280 mile trip from the cai.

I put that intake tube and a K&N filter in my 2017 and my mpg went up 1/2 to 3/4 mpg per mile.

I got the same MIT tube on my 2018 but used a Green filter instead of the AirRaid. Im running stock exhaust currently, and can tell a sound difference around 2500 RPM. There's a video from American Trucks that showed an install and a Dyno run with the tube. Didn't have any peak gains, but the curve gains were about 20-25 more HP. From around 4,000 to 5,500 was the curve gains.

Airaid in my 6.2 Denali full exhaust I went Airaid because its a true cold air not half ass'd cold air I saw a big difference at the top of the rpm and right as soon as I hit the throttle compares to the K$N 77 series.

I love that it uses the factory air box 🇺🇲

Gains are between 4600 - 5600 RPM, and is used during passing events. Power and torque gains are real, do a before and after dynotune on your factory truck and then tell us there are no gains.

I'd love to put something like this on my 6.2l. It looks so much cleaner looking under the hood.

This is 1 of the best kits for these trucks. Now it needs a catch can.

Good video bubba. If you ain’t seen it, watch the American Truck RU-vid video on the same tube. They have a dino run of before and after and it shows the difference it makes.

Make sure to wipe down the connecting boots because they do have a thin protective film. If you don't then the boot can slip off the throttle body

Banks ram air on my Silverado, can’t beat the build quality and sound.

Love the vids keep it up man!

I stay away from the full intake kits. Way to $$ for pretty much 0 gains, just sound. I will get the intake tube like yours cause of the clutter under the hood. The differences in power gains is when you get into heads and cam work etc. When you actually need the extra air. Then a tune and a intake will make a few extra horses. 👍.

S&B cool air intakes are the best on the market!

Cold air intakes just make noise, waist of money, and yea heavy duty mud flaps might not look the best but good luck on all of those rocks hitting your paint from those tires.

S&B, all the way. If it's not a sealed box CAI (only open for the air vent on the side)..its not helping much. You gotta reduce the intake of engine bay air because hot air = no bueno. K&N and any "cold air" that's just hanging out...all ricer cosmetic BS. S&B also release all their test results so you can get somewhat of an idea of what your increase should be....usually 5-10 HP and 1-3 mpg increase, if installed correctly. It also adds a little aggression to your exhaust tone. I have one on my 2018 Sierra LT1 and mt 2020 JL 2.0T. You don't have to get S&B (though I recommend you do) but do yourself a favor and get a sealed box CAI and avoid that open air ricer crap. More than anything, just be smart and research, research, research.

I have the air raid intake tube with the stock box and it has a nice rumble at certain rpms

Been watching your vids for awhile now. I have a 14 gmc slt all terrain I bout 6 months ago with 97xxx miles an did the 3in front leveling kit an black in the back an running 20x12s on 305s an I just rolled it over 109k lastnigjt an havent had any issues with ball joints yet. The factory lowers on mine arent grease able an a boot was ripped when I I bought the truck so I replaced them jus to be safe. Looking at possible upgrading my uppers to fabtech control arms soon. Great video as always. Keep up the good work

Brother S&b is the best down right I got them on all my Cummins and my wife’s 2018 5.3

GM Air Boxes Draw a TON of Air, I did the Exact same thing to my 2008, along with Exhaust, performance wires, delco Iridium Plugs and Tune, and got 50hp. @Imfscrew

Stock box with the mod and the Airaid tube is all you need.

I heard that the petal commander on these trucks are a must.

Cold air intake will not add any real noticeable power, also got me a K&N CAI the most noticeable aspects were a slight change in sound coming from the engine and a bit better throttle response

I have a S&B on my 15 5.3 hand down the best

I just replaced the filter on my 17 Silverado don't hear noise but I get a little more response. Haven't driven enough to get fuel economy.

Thank you for the detailed assembly, this is very helpful. Nice 🙂

The ad 3/4 through the video cuts right into the startup. If you have anything to say about the ad placement, you might want to move it a second or two earlier

I did basically the same thing but with a K&N filter that goes in factory box. Put in an Airaid modular intake tube

I had the same air intake setup on my 2017 Silverado 6.2. Ran well. But I changed out to a full AFE momentum GT air intake. Truck runs much better and smoother. Also next thing you should look into for your truck is the jlt oil catch can.

My mass air flow censor has a screen Why is a screen needed. It only restricts air flow

What about clamps on hoses on the intake side.???

Another good video to look at is Leaman Griffin he did a cold air intake on his new 5.3 truck with dyno numbers before and after

You should have went with cold air inductions. It’s a closed box not a exposed air filter.

Done the same on my 17 High Country 6.2L. Airraid tube and filter now that's the best CAI anything better than the hammerhead intake. Also a catch can and cleanside separator since new

S&B intakes all day

I did the same thing on my 6.2 Sierra. You may want to look into the catch can and clean side separator. I installed that on my truck when it only had 1,500 miles. Helps to keep the valves clean with the Direct Congestion; oops, I mean injection engine.

You should of gone with a s&b cai which is a fully inclosed cai and much better quality but the airaid jr intake isnt bad either but s&b is better and very easy to install

Your Silverado looks good man

Exactly the way to go

cam swaps are super easy on these engines. I did mine in my garage a year ago

Where did you buy your seat covers ?

It looks like it makes more room in the engine compartment, getting that big box off there. Can you get into everything easier now?

Nice one bro keep up the great work bro

Did it come with different fittings for the valve covers? I purchased one of these on marketplace in Gadsden and all it came with was the tube and rubber hoses. I looked at the factory fittings and they don’t seem to work.....

K&N is better, but you do you.

Please tell me where you got those seat covers

Put a system in next with stock radio

How about ADD a Throttle Body Spacer ?

Do you run a tuner on your truck or pedal commander? I can’t figure out what to go with on my truck. Chevy 5.3 Ltz 2014 1500

Nobody thinks you get 40% increase in hp. Open air filters don’t get the heat from your engine, so just speak about shit you know.

I have a 2018 Chevy Silverado LT 1500, I was wanting to put a 3” leveling kit on it. What’s the ride quality like. Do you recommend it?

Let’s see a updated video on this!

What intake would y’all recommend for a lly duramax

Does anyone know what that annoying whine noise is that these trucks make? You can really hear it on his truck when it starts: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-FU8XfSKSFoQ.html I've noticed some trucks make this noise worse than others. Mine is pretty loud and really noticeable putting around parking lots. It sounds like a bad power steering pump.

What is the brand and style of your wheels?

What exhaust is that??? Sounds amazing!!

Love the channel!! Do you know by chance if the 2018 silverado, has a plug and play harness to install amp and subs with factory screen, that I don't have to splice any wires to keep warranty good. Talked to a guy he said that only the silverados with the bose sound system are plug and play compatible? Any help is appreciated!! TIA

Streetspeed717 made a video on the 5.3 Ltz 8 speed 2017 I believe n/a with no tune on the cold air inductions intake made 30 to the wheels I believe

Does this affect warranty?

Do they have the intake in camo?

What exhaust do you have on there?

What exhaust are you running?

Have you had any problems with warranty after added the range tuner?

I'm sure there are better places on the truck to spend that $200.

I’ll bet ya dollars to doughnuts this did not increase performance. Show me the Dyno results mr tuner.

Awesome video! EARLY!!

Are those universal seat covers?

You get what you pay for poor fella

Where did you get your seat covers ?

Ur saying stuff that isn’t tru and only opinion. Gains have been proven under the curve in the rpm range u r talking about. Intakes have not helped out much on top end. They make sense if you tow and have curve gains that are very usable. U wasted ur money on a tube and are gaining nothing but sound. Maybe some very tiny gains here and there but not sure where you got ur “generic” info on intakes for “this” particular engine and vehicle. Yes in some older and even newer vehicles the intakes won’t help but it has been dyno proven that a full cold intake does have gains on this particular engine and vehicle. Please edit ur vid. Or show some factual information and back up what u say.
