I am looking at an S&B intake, and wondering who has them or tried them and what ya'll thought about it. I know the AFE is considered the best by most, but this looks like a decent intake for a pretty cheap price. All I am looking for is a little better flow to lower EGT's and a louder turbo whistle. Let me know what ya'll think. Thanks.

I have it, very pleased with it. Turbo whistle is definitely increased over stock.

If you look, you can get one for about $180.00 shipped.

I have one. I like it. It gave me about .5 mpg or so, and has a nice whistle to it. I will say, tho, that S&B's customer service sucks. My kit came with the wrong size bolt to attach the front of box to the radiator support. I e-mailed them my address, explained the problem and asked for a replacement bolt. This was probably month and a half ago, and I still haven't got it. The box is pretty secure without the bolt, so I'm not too stressed over it, but it's a let down knowing not everyones customer service is as good as, for example, Quadzilla.

Anyone else have any opinions? I am thinking now about biting the bullet and getting an AFE, but dont really want to spend that kind of money. Thanks for they help.

What would cause you to arbitrarily decide to spend almost twice the money? Honestly, in the long run if you chose, you could swap out the filter element for a dry flow or other AFE/AEM model.

I have one and like it so far.
I noticed today that they've changed the design for our trucks, looks like a new case, different element, different ducting too, completely new, also noticed the price increase...
