The heat shield will not perfectly seal up against the hood. So I bought a cheap Swimming Pool Noodle, cut, split and installed it onto the heatshield to help close any gaps under the hood. So now, my filter doesn't suck hardly any hot air from the engine compartment.
Ran into a few fitting issues. Bracket that mounts from fender to heat shield was to short. Had to shim. Holes in intake tube for air flow sensor didn’t line up either and had to get creative. For the money it saved I guess it was worth the trouble.
It's certainly less to worry about! If you don't put too much oil on your oiled filter and let it dry completely though, you should have any issues with sucky residual oil into your engine. -Zach
You’ll have to buy the other mass air flow sensor that’s compatible with the rough country intake. The factory harness plugs are the exact same. Hope this helps.
I just ordered it and will be installing it on my 2008 Suburban this week. I installed the K&N on my previous 2008, looking at this video so far I see ZERO reason it should have any issues on a 2007-2008. Should know for sure by Thursday night.
I would recommend disconnecting your battery during install and letting the truck run for a bit parked after installing so the MAF/computer can adapt to the new air intake. -Zach
Shop this Rough Country Cold Air Intake! : amtrucks.at/3tm95sq
I wish we could see the difference it makes in power on a dyno

Why wouldn't you show the sound difference too 🙄
A dry filter is the way to go , with a oiled filter , silicon ends up in your motor oil.

Videos missing details as removing son hose from the stock air filter pipe
Why will this not work with 2008
Do you guys sell hoodies/t shirts like the ones you guys are wearing in this video? I dont see them on your site
What i noticed was the radiator hose awkwardly ran over the intake line vs. Under the oem intake line. Why isn't it build correctly.
Mine didn’t come with the filter adapter 🤦♂️
With it not having a top cover wouldn’t it still pull in hot air from the engine bay ?
There a hole under the bracket where the filter goes it gets cool air from the tires spinning
Do I really need the extension I don’t think I saw them use one
I have the big round maf sensor. Not the simple small one that you unscrew. How can I make that work?

Thanks for showing the pvc part
Thank for watching! -Zach
I got mine in Chrome it looks nice Compared to the plastic look 👍
Thanks for watching!! -Zach
Why won’t it work on a 2007 or 2008 Tahoe/suburban

@brandonbressman8577 did it fit?
Does this intake work on the 6.0 engine in the 2007 through 2008 Sierra?
Will this cause the check engine light to come on?
Lmao
anyone else get ending pinging with cold air intakes on this truck?
Why wouldn’t you let us hear the sound difference?
Do I have to drill a hole?
just use the bracket on the side and the pre existing hole on the bottom its plenty sturdy dont need to drill the other one
What’s IAT?
Intake air temp! -Zach
I was hoping to get this but it is never in stock.so got useless american truck gift cards
Should be back in stock next week. 😉 -Zach
More like hot air intake 😅
This was a horrible install video. I'd like to hear an explanation on how to pull the crank case tub off the rail system. Thanks for nothing
This is a terrible kit. Don't waste your money
MAF relearn needed?
