Helpful Notes

  • BHAF fitment: Verify diameter, height, and mounting room near the battery and fender on 2nd-Gens before ordering.
  • Service: Follow brand-specific cleaning/oiling instructions and avoid over-oiling.
  • Turbo inlet screens: Use on open-element intakes to protect the compressor in dusty environments.
  • Legal: Many kits listed are CARB-exempt; verify E.O. numbers for your state if applicable.

Frequently Asked Questions

What’s the easiest intake upgrade for a daily-driven 12-valve?

A sealed cold-air intake kit (Banks, S&B, aFe) adds airflow and serviceability with straightforward installation.

BHAF vs. sealed CAI—what should I choose?

BHAF offers lots of area and low restriction in an open configuration; sealed CAI draws cooler air and keeps debris/water out better. Pick based on your climate and usage.

Dry or oiled filter media?

Dry is low-mess and great for street/tow; oiled can flow slightly more when properly serviced. We stock both options across Banks, S&B, and aFe.

Do these intakes fit 1994–1998 trucks even if the product says 1994–2002?

Yes—most kits cover 1994–2002 5.9L trucks; your 12-valve years are included. Confirm fit notes on each product page.

How often should I clean a reusable filter?

Inspect every oil change in dusty use. Clean and re-oil (oiled media) or wash (dry media) per the brand’s kit instructions.
