I just purchased a 2024 GMC Ultimate Denali 2500HD, what would be a good cold air intake any help would be appreciated

Save your money and buy some fuel for your new truck. These new trucks make so much power at lower RPMs that a cold air intake does almost nothing for performance 99% of the time.

So good news your truck has a factory cold air intake already.

but if you want to get an intake that can flow more air you are in-luck.
Banks Power has the highest flowing intake system you can add. When installed right it works great.

just a note. No intake will add 150hp or give you 10MPG more.

this one will flow more air and give the truck what it wants.

will you feel it in the old butt Dyno, most likely no. If you did take it to a dyno and tested before and after number will you see a difference yes.

I have enjoyed my in take from banks for 12k miles.

to be honest I think you also need the boost tubes as well.

when my truck hit 15k miles, I saw an increase in power. I use the Banks iDash to see the horse power and torque outputs.

I am happy to say my numbers are now higher that factory stated output.

I just installed a K/N cold air intake in my 2023 chevy 3.0 duramax, the computer had to be reprogrammed by the mechanic, but one that was done, the truck was more responsive, had a nicer engine sound, and slightly quicker, you will definitely have to reprogram the computer or the check engine light will come on. good luck
