2014 Silverado LTZ help needed......

CAIs really wont get you anything on this truck unless you get a new exhaust and do several other mods and you are still only looking at a very minimal power gain. Also I would say go with HIDs for your headlights. Much brighter and you shouldn't have any issues if installed correctly.

Yeah they may add about 10 horses, based on dynos done, but nothing exceptional. CAI definitely make your engine roar though and I have noticed better throttle response.

Yeah if I could get a CAI for about a third of the cost then they would definitely be worth it. But I couldn't justify spending $400+ on one of these :sigh:

2.) I have the projector lights also and put in the Opt7 LED bulbs. They are very bright and I love them. They are easy plug and play. The only tricky part is getting the dust covers back on over the lights but it is doable! Also, if you go with the Opt7 LED bulbs, use the polarity adapter. Everything I've read, everyone has had to use them for our truck. They come with the lights and i had to use them.

 

4.) I have the K&N CAI in my truck. I love it. Makes the truck sound great, I haven't really noticed any MPG gain though. Just sounds great and better throttle response. From what I have read though, our trucks already come with a factory CAI and all you really need to do is change out the intake tube. Most people have used Airraid.

 

Do you have the projectors? How do they look if so?

Yeah, I have an LTZ so my truck came stock with the projectors. I love them. They look great and work amazing. Mine cut off perfectly and I do not blind other driver with my lights. As far as the opt7 lights, mine are doing great and look great. Haven't had any problems so far.

I was thinking about doing a projector retrofit but wasn't sure. Any way I could see your projectors with the LEDs? I like some of the pics I've seen with the fxr and hids but that's alot of damn money. I have a lt but managed to snag a set of ltz lights for 250 bucks
