so I’ve been driving with the cold air intake for about a week and I noticed that my truck seems way more responsive, especially from a stop, and the turbo noises are a lot louder so far I love it

I installed my AFE when new. It has held up great.

Questions for you guys who successfully installed DIY - what was the most challenging part of the install?

The absolute most challenging part was the bypass air vent thing on the back of the intake tube

That sounds like a critical step for a successful install. Do that wrong & codes get thrown I bet? Glad yours works & sounds nice like it was meant to!

It’s been a few years. I can’t specify what was the most difficult? It seems it went pretty straight forward.

Ive ran the K& N on 2 of my Silverados, I definitely liked how it changes the tone of the engine. However this is my first 4 cylinder turbo so what should I expect, the costs and the advantage .

from what i understand you should change your oil more often, expect louder turbo noise entering the cabin the biggest thing i notice is much faster throttle response

Can I assume with this kit you had to connect it to the turbo with a larger pipe? If so, how difficult was it getting your hand down there to remove the old one and then tighten the new one?
