- K&N Cold Air Intake System: High-Flow Air Filter, Increase Performance & Towing: Compatible with 1996-2000 (C2500 & SELECT MODELS), 57-3013-2

96 GMC Suburban K1500. This kit is a must have for any 1st generation Vortec motor. Quicker acceleration and better MPG to boot. My truck also sounds much louder under acceleration. Just remember to give the computer (PCM) time to adjust it's parameters to accommodate for this kit. You'll notice after a few miles, that your engine will pick up even more performance as the PCM fine tunes itself. *Update: I highly recommend the the throttle body mod with this intake. The mod consists of cutting off the diffuser under the throttle plate. It makes a huge difference in acceleration and sound. Search Youtube for tutorials on this.

What a pain in the bleep to install. For what you pay for it, the fitment and quality of the product is absolutely frustrating. The directions are fantastic. I’ll give them that. Am i a mechanic? Absolutely not. I’m a handyma’am at best. But I’ve taken to enjoy working on restoring our 99 Tahoe 2 door. The rigidity of the tube and grand size of the box make for a very hard piece to install. You get one part in place, move to the next step and the last part pops off. I ended up tightening the filter on last as i was able to manipulate the box to slide the arm into place (once i finally got that part tightened enough). That being said, once we got it on and drove it, we definitely heard an improvement. It’s louder and you can feel it’s more responsive, a little more power.

I’ve always been a decent fan of K&N. I recently ordered a new K&N intake for my older 98 GMC Sierra. Installation was not nearly as bad as people were complaining about, and everything fit perfectly. This really opened up my little 5.0l motor. I definitely recommend K&N intakes and filters!

After install it My gas mileage went down also I didn’t notice any difference between power or torque sold it to a friend

It sounds great in the air Flow is amazing. But it slips off every time you want to leave the house.

Great fit sounds good!

Flimsy. I have a factory hood and the hood hits the hard plastic ducting. The rubber Coupler that adapts ducting to the the throttle body doesnt hold the ducting securely. The air cleaner box sits on rubber mounts on the fender and doesnt meet the fender to make a seal so your still just gonna draw in hot air. Not worth the money.

Cons: The packaging came in really good shape and nothing open, but it was still missing some hardware. I had the missing pieces in my shop, but a normal Joe would have had a very frustrating delay installing it. Pros: Nice kit, good fit, easy to assemble (with all the hardware), and looks good also. I have not tested power and fuel mileage yet, I will update if its other than good. Installed on a 1997 Chevrolet 4x4 K2500 Suburban with a 5.7L (350cid) and 4L80E.

It's my second kit from K&N, first one was in FIAT and now in GMC. Great filters, very good quality and this sooooouuunnd when you accelerate! WoW Love it.

good but the picture is deceiving...i already purchase this kit and the filter was stainlesssteel with same logo on the pipe,,,this one is different ,,,,,fit great sound great

It looks like it was used

amélioration pour un moteur qui respire mieux , je ne saurais pas dire exactement pour ce qui est des performances, ce n'étais pas mon but premier. a voir dans le temps...

Takes quite a bit of adjustment to make fit properly. Would not recommend this to anyone
