    Talking Air Raid Intake Tube worth any HP or MPG?

    I was thinking of getting the Air Raid Intake Tube to replace the stock tube on my 03Silverado 2WD with towing package.

    They dont have any Dyno #'s?? which seems a little suspicious to me?

    Any of you folks using a Air Raid Tube with the stock air box on a 5.3?

    We have the tube on our 2004 5.3L suburban 4x4. Again, not real sure on your actual numbers, but it is paired with the K&N filter, and a predator programmer. Get about 16 mpg with 50/50 highway/city driving.

    The stock box is surprisingly efficient, but the best part is that it sucks the outside air in, rather than the hot air under the hood (like my K&N FIPK on my truck). It is much more responsive and sounds better as wel (it growls with stock exhaust).

    So, anyways, there you go...

    So you got the air raid tube and the cone type filter or the stock air box?

    Thanks

    Default Air Raid

    I put the Air Raid on my 05 6.0 Sierra Denali, did not notice any power or mileage increase. Only thing I noticed was more noise on accelleration.
