I think I’m leaning to S&B or the new injen intake, I put a magnaflow exhaust on and and I love it too. The borla was a little too hardcore for me and I’m thrifty and the magnaflow I got a good deal on.

Wow both guys that have modified their trucks for their own taste are chastising people for doing the same. I’ve had several factory hot rods of late that had factory aftermarket looking CALs on them.

This is a good read. https://www.hpacademy.com/technical-articles/air-intake-restrictions-explained/  Ultimately any restriction to incoming air in an engine will result in reduced volumetric efficien

classactions are a boondogle... the "attorneys" make millions while claimants get a coupon for a BOGO free meatless whopper. Just end up costing consumers more in the end.

I just ordered the Airaid Jr 201-782 kit for my 6.2 Trail Boss. I don’t care about the measly horsepower gain, I just want to get rid of the intake silencing chambers or whatever they’re called so I can hear my engine better. Hopefully it will complement the Borla Touring exhaust I installed, and maybe it’ll slightly mask some of the rattles and ticking noises that this beauty makes haha!

If you want noisy... S&B without adding "the plug" is it.  Old man asked what exhaust I had because it's loudddd

I love the Touring. To me it’s the perfect amount of sound. Cold starts with the 6.2 are still quite loud even though it’s the tamest option from Borla.

As my truck came with the Kooks LTs and Y-pipe, I decided on S&B CAI and left the plug in. It's a pretty tame exhaust note, with the factory exhaust.  The size of that filter is just big enough. lol

      MPG at 600 miles

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      There are probably a few threads talking about fuel mileage but this one seemed to fit the stats I have seen based on my typical local driven route but with different outcomes based on different seasons/temperatures. I have a few hundred pounds of items that consistently ride on the truck at all times such as a bak flip cover, rubber bed mat, tools and extra fuel so I would be something over 8100 lb without me in the truck. All these examples are based on a 100 mile round trip to a town plus running around town so maybe 110 to 120 miles in total for a trip. Using regular fuel and I assume it always has some ethanol in it but don't know the percentage they blend in. Also speed wise I am going at 62 mph and non aggressive driving although less speed yet if its crappy winter condition roads. I am going by an initial reset of the computer generated fuel use numbers averaged over a couple of thousand miles or so for each weather/season so they may be more optimistic then actual hand calculated numbers. Basically this is painting a picture of doing the same drive but seasonal conditions and temperature being the major variable to the end result. Oh and although I am in Alberta Canada, I am converting it to miles per US gallon so there is no confusion.    So winter time it gets cold here, no real surprise there and the roads can be clear at times but also often have packed rough snow or are are driving through loose snow ( they do a poor job of plowing the highways ) and yes this includes the extra idle engine time due to trying not to freeze ones butt off. 12.7 mpg is what I was getting during the winter months on average.    Then during the spring when it was around the freezing point and the highways are clear of snow, I was getting around 14.25 mpg.   Summer time, I have been getting around 15.15 on average but certainly some of the trips showed quite a bit better fuel mileage, so much depended on how much or little I had driven around town and number of engine restarts after sitting for a while at each location. But stating a best fuel mileage trip to town pretending that is what the truck gets on average is fooling ones self for sure !.      As I said in a different post, I had driven a 645 mile trip over a couple of days stint to a different destination then these other daily to town examples above, and was done during the summer with nice weather and not bucking a head wind, also keeping at 62 mph and its a rolling landscape type highway drive ( this isn't southern Alberta or Saskatchewan flat lands ) Hand calculated fuel mileage in this case though and it came out to 17.65
