dlang13 Posted April 14, 2016 Posted April 14, 2016 Looking at getting a new air filter for my Silverado. Just wondering what brand everyone is running? Any significant changes to sound, MPG or performance? Any info you may have would be great! NOT looking at adding a CAI at this time!
Panik Posted April 14, 2016 Posted April 14, 2016 If you are just referring to swapping the filter element in the stock housing I am using Wixx filters. I have'nt and wouldn't expect any changes in mpg or performance. That being said Wixx has a very good reputation as a aftermarket filter replacement. Another to look at might be Mann Hummel slot bough I do not know if they make replacement elements for our trucks.
tnchevy Posted April 14, 2016 Posted April 14, 2016 Just about any air filter will be just fine, I wouldn't over think it. 1
Rkaroll953 Posted April 14, 2016 Posted April 14, 2016 AEM Dryflow. its like a KN but with no oil to screw up the MAF
fondupot Posted April 14, 2016 Posted April 14, 2016 Wix OEM replacement. I have the regular air box with an Airaid Jr intake tube.
emeryz28 Posted April 14, 2016 Posted April 14, 2016 Airaid dry. I also swapped the factory tube with the airaid tube. Well worth the 200 bucks, flows better, better throttle response and it sounds awesome when you get on it. If you want a factory replacement, go with Wix, if you want more performance but not much sound increase, K&N drop in, if you want more performance and a nice growl, get the Airaid Jr intake
ewbldavis Posted April 14, 2016 Posted April 14, 2016 Good info - due for new filter soon. FWIW - The muffler delete did wonders for how she sounds!
Tattooo Posted April 14, 2016 Posted April 14, 2016 (edited) I always run a K&N....breathes better, reusable & If I'm not mistaken it has a million mile warranty Edited April 14, 2016 by Tattooo
MikeNH Posted April 14, 2016 Posted April 14, 2016 No filter will substantially change anything. Just run OEM or OEM style filters. You're not going to gain a thing with a drop in. 1
Silverado Steve Posted April 14, 2016 Posted April 14, 2016 Fram tough guard. Any OEM paper filter works. 1
