There are 3 different air intakes K&N are showing for our H2. With out changing the exhaust what air intake should I put on our new H2? Will it really make a difference with out changing the exhaust? How many of you have done this and really noticed a change?

I have read many past posts about air intake. Our H2 passing gear is a little slow, but when it kicks in, it kicks in!! I don''t want to change the exhaust right now (too new). Mabe in a year or so.

Air in = air out. If I don''t change the exhaust, will just an air intake make any difference in the passing gear? When I try to do the math on paper, it comes out not really. But, some times putting it on paper, and actual events are difference. If it does help, what one to get? To many brands, and to many different ones.

I think they want you to share what exactly it has done to improve your H2.

What are you going for? Loudness? Performance? Quietness?

I don''t think that the CAI alone will do much for you other than ascetics. Will help some but not sure if it would be noticeable

What year is your H2? I have an ''08, and the only CAI I can find for it is the GM performance brand. And of course GM doesn''t have any actual specs. If I buy it, ill let you know how it turns out.
