Air Raid MIT

[426ted]

Hey guys, looking for a little more noise out of the truck and want to clean up the look under the hood. I was going to add a tube, but the Air Raid site doesn't list them for a 2016 w/6.2, unless I'm blind. I don't want to spend the $$ as the truck already has a cold air intake from the factory (plus I'm cheap). Thanks for the help.

All the Airraid MIT tubes are the same for a 5.3 and a 6.2.  The only diff is the one for a 5.3 has a coupler that necks down to fit the smaller 5.3 throttle body.  The 6.2 coupler is the same size as the tube and the bigger 6.2 throttle body.  I went through this when I swapped my MIT intake from my old 5.3 truck to my newer 6.2 truck.  I just went to a local speed shop and purchased a 4" piece of silicone hose to use on my 6.2.  There is a used MIT intake on here for sale now somewhere.

I have the tube and filter from Air Aid for my 2015 Z71.  Noticeable sound difference, slight uptick in MPG.  No notice on the butt dyno

If you really want to improve the sound and don't want to get an exhaust I recommend getting a full intake with a metal tube. K&N is the only manufacturer I know of that does this but the resonance of metal vs plastic is huge. I did a metal K&N on my colorado 3.6 and it was signifcantly louder then my 5.3 with the MIT Tube and whatever gm "aftermarket" exhaust comes on the all terrain. Also with the stock air box you don't get the swishing sound and therefore I ended up selling my MIT. On the 5.3 I opted to do a s&b intake because it utilizes a paper conical filter and while more expensive the cleaning process for the oiled filters is a pia and can be problematic. I do highly recommend my S&B intake but if you really want more noise get an exhaust.

I vote cut out stock muffler and weld in a magnaflow or flowmaster. 

 

I like to hear v8 growl above 2.5k rpm. 

 

My buddy put on a full intake box and tube. You hear a lot of sucking and wooshing. Didn’t notice a damn thing for power increase. It is nice to see filter but I’m over cleaning those and would rather just replace stock paper filter.
