What intake? K&n aem??

I already figured out that the subie one is not the greatest from reading what are people using?? Id like to hear that turbo alittle more but dont want to sacrifice any performance Suggestions please!

Why are you looking for a legacy intake for your turbo silverado?

dont want to sacrifice any performance Suggestions please!

then stick with stock

I've enjoyed my Cobb CAI. Make sure you tune for it. If sound is what you're looking for this and any other intake will give you what you're looking for. There is definitely a noticeable difference. My wife said my car sounds like an airplane taking off.

LOL if my SS had a turbo I wouldnt have bought my LGT!

I have an APS 65mm CAI from an sti, as long as your tuned for it you will be fine and it will definitely let you hear the turbo more.

If you want to hear your turbo and want to spend no money you could just remove your intake silencer. Takes all of about 15 mins. The stock intake is actually quite good.

K&N, Cobb, KSTech, and AEM are all quality aftermarket intakes for the LGT that should be fairly easy to tune for. They are also more or less in order of volume (loudest to most quiet). I have the AEM and it is not very loud.

Removed silencer and a drop in panel filter (Perrin, K&N, etc) will allow you to hear your turbo/BPV and not require tuning. Also, it's the cheapest and easiest option available.

Nothing but issues with my AEM and rain/ car wash.

Blitz and Avo also make good drop in panel filters.

I found MAF scalings with a K&N Panel filter in place of the OEM paper were much closer to the values of a real intake than the stock intake (with and without the resonator in place). You should still properly scale a panel filter if you're running other than the stock fuel table, which is most tunes.

I had this intake also and had the same issues. It's a shame as this was my favorite intake other than the water issue. I've since tried the K&N Typhoon and have settled on the Cobb with Airbox.

My "intake" is inside my engine compartment still. Hopefully I will not have water issues. Sadly my car came that way. Makes a nice woosh and turbo sound though. It is an HPS intake. I guess I like it.

 

They have a video of it. I do not think it sounds impressive in the clip at all, but in the cabin you can surely hear the turbo quite well.

short ram typically will be louder than one that sits in the wheel well IMO. I have a Cobb and love the sound, but if you just want a cool sound and don't want to spend money on a tune just remove the silencer...

Never had problems with my AEM CAI and moisture. No problems with my last subaru and moisture either (99 SF, Injen CAI). But YMMV.

 

Compared to the CAI, the stock intake w/silencer removed sounds like ass IMO. It is a deep boomy monotone noise that starts right at 3K RPM. Two totally different sounds.

How does one even know if you have moisture issues?

CEL for MAF over voltage. I forget the CEL #

I had a Cobb SF intake with airbox and it was fairly loud. I was once told it sounds like a circular saw.

I now have a KStech CAI and it's not as loud.

Cobb here, too...never thought it sounded like a saw though I like how it sounds

anyone used the AEM By pass valve?

 

I was reading on their website, and they say not for FI vehicles?

I was going to install one on my sister's old accord, but once I saw that you have to cut the pipe to install it, it was promptly returned.

 

If you installed it after the MAF I could see how it could let in unmetered air, leaning out your mixture quite a bit.

If you want noise go with a K&N.

On a 05 obxt where is the silencer located? I have a k&n filter and hear nothing. Thanks
