Expert Answers about GMC Cold Air Intakes


  • Will The Edge Jammer Cold Air Intake Work With An Exhaust Brake On A Dodge 5.9L Cummins Engine
  • The Edge Jammer Cold Air Intake with Pre-Oiled Air Filter part # EP38225 is designed to fit a 1994-2002 Dodge Ram with the 5.9l turbocharged diesel engine. As the Banks exhaust brake works to compress the exhaust gasses (hot side) not the intake flow (cold side), it should have no compatibility issues with the Edge cold air intake as long as your turbocharger remains in the factory location. Therefore, yes, the Edge cold air intake will work with the Banks exhaust brake. This is a great...

  • Cold Air Intake Power Gains of Cold Air Intake for 2018 GMC Sierra 1500 5.3 liter V8
  • I recommend a full cold air intake on your 2018 GMC Sierra 1500 like the # EP284141-D you'd see gains of around 10-15 horsepower on a dyno. By itself, you'll notice an increase in power, especially when the throttle is fully open. Team up the Jammer intake with other Edge performance products and you'll create a much more efficient system with maximum gains in power, mileage, and efficiency.

  • Cold Air Intake Recommendation for a 2015 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited
  • Sounds like you are wondering if one of those electric superchargers can be installed in the intake tube of a AirAid MXP Cold Air kit part # AR310-132 for your 2015 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited. To be perfectly honest, don't waste your money on an electric supercharger/intake propeller. They don't work and are just a gimmick. They just don't flow enough CFM to make a difference. At wide open throttle they actually reduce air flow since they can't keep up. They basically end up in the way. A...

  • Recommended Cold Air Intake for a 2017 Ford F-150
  • For your 2017 Ford F-150 with the 5.0L coyote engine, I recommend taking a look at the Airaid MXP Cold Air Intake System part # AR401-293. The Airaid intake improves airflow to the engine which results in a power increase up to 19 HP and 26 TQ. The enclosed air box blocks out heat from the engine to maximize cold air draw. In addition to improved airflow, the dry 2-layer filter works to prevent 99.6% of contaminants from entering the engine. The intake easily installs using the factory...

  • Do Headers have to be Installed to Add Cold Air Intake on a 2006 Chevy Silverado with 6.0 Liter
  • When upgraded parts people will usually upgrade headers along with adding cold air intake but you do not have to upgrade headers to be able to install just cold air intake. So in other words you can install just cold air intake # AR200-247 if you want. This particular model will fit your 2006 Chevy Silverado with 6.0 liter motor as long as it has a belt-driven radiator fan. For models with electric fans use # AR200-251. The filter will need to be cleaned periodically so I recommend Airaid...

  • How Do Cold Air Intakes Affect Fuel Economy
  • A cold air intake like the AFE Direct Fit Cold Air Intake System # AFE51-11052 that you referenced could only help your fuel economy. Most likely it would give you a few more miles per gallon. As long as it is installed correctly it should give you increased fuel mileage and performance. I attached installation instructions for you to check out also.

  • Can Cold Intakes Be Used with Superchips Programmer Installed on 2012 Ford Mustang with a 5.0 Liter
  • The Superchips Flashpaq F5 Pro Programmer # SU4845 that you referenced is a fit for your 2012 Ford Mustang 5.0 liter and can give the vehicle the vehicle up to 35 horsepower and 40 ft lbs of torque. A cold air intake would work just fine with this kit. Cold air intakes and cat-back exhaust systems work fine as-is with programmers like this.

  • Is Airaid Cold Air Intake Compatible with California's CARB Emissions Standards
  • Yes. I checked with Airaid and cold air intake # AR201-235 for the 2009 Chevy Silverado is street legal in all US states. So the CARB standards won't affect this particular part or its use. Cold air intake makes the engine more efficient so it makes sense that CARB would not be a factor!

  • Performance Cold Air Intake for 2008 Ford F-250 Super Duty XLT Triton V10
  • When it comes to a cold air intake system for your 2008 Ford F-250 Super Duty XLT Triton V10, I have two options for you, Airaid CAD Cold Air Intake System with SynthaFlow Oiled Filter, # AR400-226, and Airaid CAD Cold Air Intake System with SynthaMax Dry Filter, # AR401-226. The difference between the two is that the oil based filter will have a higher filtration rating because of the oil in the filter and the dry filter will offer less maintenance because you will not have to apply oil...

  • Correct Airaid Cold Air Intake System for a 2007 Chevrolet Suburban with 5.3L
  • The correct Airaid Cold Air Intake System for a 2007 Chevrolet Suburban with 5.3L is part # AR201-267 which I confirmed with Airaid but only if you have electric radiator cooling fans. If you do not have electric radiator cooling fans then you could use the Airaid CAD Cold Air Intake System with SynthaMax Dry Filter part # AR201-196 but this is your only option as they don't offer a full system for models without the electric radiator cooling fans.

  • Tuner for 2012 Ford F-150 5.0L with Aftermarket Cold Air Intake and Exhaust
  • Edge has a section in their instructions that states you should not stack performance products and use their tuners so I do not recommend them since you have aftermarket cold air intake and exhaust. I recommend the Flashpaq # SU4845 for your 2012 Ford F-150 5.0L. It will do everything you are looking for and it works well with aftermarket exhaust and cold air intake.

  • What is the Difference Between Stage 1 and Stage 2 Cold Air Intake for a 2012 Ram 2500
  • A stage 1 cold air intake will replace the filter and can also replace the box its mounted in. A stage 2 system such as # AR300-237 replaces all of that and has additional equipment, usually a larger diameter hose or collar. The higher the stage number the better the air flow. I have included a link to the cold air intake options for your 2012 Ram 2500.

  • Best Cold Air Intake On A 2017 Chevrolet Silverado 1500
  • I have the perfect option available for you. Foreign contaminates are a serious concern when weighing the pros and cons of a cold air intake system. As many aftermarket cold air intake systems are relatively open, they do not offer near as much protection from the elements in comparison to factory air boxes. However, element containment factors were strongly taken into consideration with the Airaid MXP Cold Air Intake System part # AR200-285 as the majority of the air filter is surrounded...

  • Do Throttle Body Spacers Interfere with Cold Air Intakes
  • The Airaid PowerAid Custom Throttle Body Spacer # AR450-638 that you referenced should work just fine with the cold air intake system you have installed on your 2011 Ford Mustang. It will add about an inch to your intake track length which your cold air kit shouldn't have a problem accommodating. Running two throttle body spacers would be a bit redundant and would greatly increase the chance of experiencing a fit issue so I can't recommend you go that route.

  • How Many Stages are There for Airaid Cold Air Intakes
  • Airaid offer cold air intakes in two stages. Stage 1 being a new filter and a box that isolates it from engine air which is warmer and stage 2 which includes that plus a new pipe that connects the air box to the throttle body of the vehicle. The # AR300-236 is stage one. If you let me know what vehicle you have I can let you know what your best option is.

  • Will Adding a Cold Air Intake with a Performance Tuner Help my 2016 Ford F-150 5.0L V8 Engine
  • The Edge Gas Evolution CTS2 Performance Tuner part # EP85450 can be installed on your 2016 Ford F-150 without supporting modifications. However, in order to receive the full benefit of the tuner, I recommend adding a cold air intake such as the Airaid MXP Cold Air Intake System with SynthaFlow Oiled Filter part # AR400-293. A cold air intake will work extremely well with a performance tuner. When customers seek to increase performance and improve fuel efficiency, the above two products...

  • Can Cold Air Intake be Added when Using an Edge Evolution CTS2 on a 2005 Ford F-250 Diesel
  • Edge has told us that using a programmer such as # EP96TR with cold air intake is perfectly fine. However, it could still produce an overly lean condition (more air than fuel) so if you notice the motor running differently that would be why and adjusting the air/fuel ratio can fix that issue.

Superchips will have a tune for stock equipment, one for a cold air intake and another for cold and intake and aftermarket exhaust.
