S&B Cold Air Intake

[MacLaren]

Anyone know how much horsepower and torque are gained with an S&B?

I've never noticed any gains with cold air intakes over my decades of GM truck ownership.  Most just add intake noise, but no noticeable gains in HP or Torque.  These new engines are practically bulletproof, I see no reason to add aftermarket hype gizmos that actually hurt performance.  My 2012 GMC 6.0 gasser with a 6 speed has never seen the inside of a shop for a repair!

Good deal. I was actually hoping to hear this. Saves actually of money 

Thank you, sir

Btw, agree on them being bullet proof. Love the beefed up 6 speed tranny too! Smooth as silk and imo just perfect for this type of truck
