Hey whats up guys I have a 04 dmax and currently im running a stalk air intake and was wondering whats the best after market cold air intake and im not interested in k&n...cant stand that shit for some reason...anyways id appreciate some input. thanks.:drink
Yep stocks are good just do a little cutting up of the lower part of the box to let more air in but they are good to around 500hp. Other wise I think S&B are best bang for your buck.
The stock 04 intake is not a cold air intake. It is a hot air intake. In the summer it is a menace. Especially in stop-go traffic or any time the fan engages.
I have another question. What is the difference between the afe, s&b, and the banks. obviously the price, but what about performance. Is there much of a difference?
Looks like the Banks is the best for cold air. Does anyone know or have an idea of where one could purchase one of these complete intakes including the air scoop for a best price? I am going to get one this week for my 05 GMC LLY. Thanks to everyone for all the posts. :gearjamin

I had Banks in my LLY and the K&N fillter they had kept falling off. I gave that crap away and went back to stock and never looked back. Running stock with the PPE free mod in my LMM and love it.
Search for overheating in the LLY forum & you'll see why the stock intake should be replaced. It does alright as long as ambient temps are below 80, but once it starts getting hot, if you have any kind of a load on your engine, it can heat up.
If you don't mind cleaning and maintaining a filter banks is definitely the way to go....i had both the afe and s&b (also had the stock one before any of the others) before the banks and banks is imo the best by far. Otherwise stock is the way to go.
LBZ stock intake. Just did one on my LLY, great improvement.
Plus for the price you can't beat it. Why spend $350+ for an intake.
