I used the K&N filter and silicone tubing. I can tell the difference. I have a tuned PCM and Billy Boat exhaust.

I think I know where Cracker Jack is comin from, even though he is a rice head , and remember he don't got no Hummer , you are giving up some potential air flow by keeping the two accordian stock rubber connecters (tubing). That's my best translation from ricer to Hummer.

I agree Doc. My tube is smooth inside with the exception where I made a small bend.

Sorry to stir up a storm! I'm not doubting, just curious as to the whole physics of it and what exactly is going on! What is the tube that comes out the side?
