Youll easily be able to go 2-3 times as long between filter cleaning/changing!...because it's only going to catch about %50 of what your stock paper filter caught. And if you over-oil the filter when you clean it, which is very easy to do, youll coat you intake sensors in oil and itll start running crappy. Love your videos, but if you do any driving is dusty conditions id get that put back to the stock setup. If your skeptical of me and several others with this warning, drive it the way you have it for 10-15 thousand miles, take the filter and tube off and see how much dust is coating the inside of the tube. Best luck, thanks for the great videos.
If its an oil type filter i wouldnt run one of them. I had a k&n and you could see day light thru lots of the filter. Dust inside intake tube. I stick with stock paper filters. Clean.
Have you checked your MPG towing with the Cold Air Inductions kit? You mentioned saving $200 on one trip to the West Coast. That's impressive! I pull a utility trailer all over the country with a '19 GMC 2500HD Duramax, pretty close to yours. I look at cost per mile as well as overall engine life. One thing I've been thinking regarding oiled cotton filters. It is crucial that the filter be bone dry before oiling. The oil won't penetrate through any moisture present.
That’s awesome. I figured you’d be the guy to ask because of how many miles you put on your truck. Thank you for the reply and keep kicking out some great videos. Thanks for your time. Have a great day.
That has got to take stress off the engine. Great video. You made installation look easy. That's an amazing savings on fuel! Even the birds are singing the praises of your upgrade 😂
For those saying they would buy the Banks cold air intake tnstead: I have a '17 6.7 Cummins in a 3500 dually. I also have their Monster Ram intake w/ boost tubes. I was headed to Reno with a trailer and the truck was starting to run rough at times and then smooth out. I couldn't figure it out and nobody could get it in without a 2 week appointment. By the time I was on my way back coming into Omaha it was running like crap. It was well below zero so I couldn't work on it outside. I was able to find a diesel shop on the west side of Omaha that agreed to look at it If it didn't take too long. Within an hour they found that the maf sensor wiring was against the oil filter mount and rubbed through and was grounding out. There was no way you could clock the tube so the sensor was away from the oil filter. I had to run heavy cable ties around the tube to hold the wiring away from the mount. If Banks had designed the tube to where the sensor was away from the mount I wouldn't have had the issue. It seems like an easy design fix on their part but no one thought to change it. All I'm saying is I like my Banks products but they're not perfect. I do notice a marked mpg improvement. I can get about 20-23 mpg on the highway running empty. Im not deleted because of testing in my county. Ram has agreed to a 48k mile emission warranty if you do the reflash update. So I may delay getting it done just to move back the warranty end. I'm not pulling trailers anymore but Farmer was by far my favorite UA-camr on rv transport. Such a humble, no bs kind of guy.
How did you get into RV transport? I’m currently looking into buying a 2017 Chevy 2500 duramax with 190k on it. I stumbled across one of your videos and immediately subscribed. I’m single with no children and can travel no problem.
I put a cold air intake on my 2022 Cummins and every time I ran out west in the higher elevations the truck would throw a engine light. So I had to put the stock intake back on 🤷♂️.
I've only seen only a couple failures with the pump on the l5P. The older Duramax has the CP4 but on the L5P gm changed to a Denso HP4 pump and added a lift pump in the tank. Seems to be a better system. I haven't had any issues with either my high or low pressure pump personally
@@jeffmockus5400 yes I would go with the Banks if I lived in the city, but if you live in the country or a small town so there is a lot of dirt or dust in the air then I say no don’t get it. If you go off road or drive on dirt roads or live around wildfire areas then I don’t recommend it at all. It doesn’t catch enough of the small particles or dust at all. if you look at engines that have a cold air intake you can see how dirty the intake manifold and the intake pipe is, it is not because the PVC, I have seen it with the PVC on the back of the manifold, and it is still extremely dirty. I would highly recommend just replacing your air filter often and even getting the wicks air filter will work really good. You can modify your intake Plenum where your air filter goes and get better airflow. And cells intake pipe that will take care of your resonator and your bezel. I honestly do not like cold air intakes because too much dirt gets past the air filter for a diesel truck with the turbo, I just don’t like it. On the other hand in the city and there’s not much dirt in the air then yes go for it. I have a 2019 L5P and I just keep my Wixs air filter, clean and replace it often and I do grate.
@@jeffmockus5400 and to be honest with you he has almost 1,000,000 miles on the chassis and frame, but he does not have it on the engine. He just put that engine in not too long ago. And being truck driver and owning my own L5P truck personally. There is a lot of different things that come in to play on fuel economy. I can make the exact same trip back to back approximately 400 miles and I will vary one maybe 1.5 miles per gallon in each run. it all has to do with atmosphere pressure, wind, resistance, etc. With diesel trucks there is a lot that comes to play when it comes to fuel economy, especially when pulling.

For that price, I'd buy the Banks version!
Definitely LOVE MY BANKS.

Good video. Anyone wanting to do this should do it easily after watching this.

Really good video bud. Iv debated on a cold air intake for a while not sure if it was worth it but that looks like a really good system.
We're in Goshen for a few days. If you're picking up in the area, give me a shout, and we'll buy your lunch.
Hey, i just delivered in California today. Will be headed back tomorrow
Great video! I’m all about that fuel mileage!

Hey Farmer, Great video work on the cold air install. How much is it$$
If you tap on the title of the video, it drops down to where he has the link for it.
I think Banks has the best intakes for the diesels!
I’ve unrelated question to the video. Have you ever had a problem with the CP4 fuel pump on your L5P?
I've only seen only a couple failures with the pump on the l5P. The older Duramax has the CP4 but on the L5P gm changed to a Denso HP4 pump and added a lift pump in the tank. Seems to be a better system. I haven't had any issues with either my high or low pressure pump personally
what kind of fuel mileage do you get loaded and empty please? I'm thinking about getting into this with a truck just like yours. Thanks
What kind of fuel economy increase did you see in terms of mpg. Thanks
Imagine if you deleted your truck
Cooler temps
Mpg increased
Increased Longevity of engine life
You will regret that.
Why do you say he will regret that? Are you saying it doesn't stop the dirt?
