Hi all , I drive a 1999 chevey pick-up , with 5.3 engine. Arrived at a customers house(Retired GM man). The first thing out of his mouth was "You Don't Get Enough Air". He then proceeded to tell me about the little hole on the inside of the fender wall , which is where the motor gets all it's air. He popped the hood on his truck (5.3 engine) , and prceeded to show me the small air inlet. I had to agree. It looked way to small to me. He had installed the K&N air induction kit on his truck back in 2004. Claims he has a lot more power , and gets 22 miles per gallon. Of course , he uses his truck as a car , not a work truck. I get 14 miles per gallon empty. About 10 pulling a trailer. The K&N website claims engine HP increase of over 18 HP. Didn't notice any milage claims. These K&N air induction kits are very expensive. I've priced anywhere from $209.00 - $350.00 for the very same kit. (What a price fluctuation.) Anyways , does anyone have any experience with these air induction kits? Are they worth the money? Thanks for any information you give.
