anyone running a cold air intake on 2012 2500HD 6.0L ?
Hey guys
I just got my new 2012 Chevy 2500HD crew cab w/ 6.0L
It kinda feels like something is restricting the engine from winding up faster.
Im thinking maybe a cold air intake or dual exhaust would help
Is anyone running a cold air intake? if so what do you recommend?
Another question,
I can pick up a FRONT TORSION BAR KEY LEVELING LIFT KIT at a reasonable price.
has anyone had one of these kits on thee truck? If so any issues?
Not sure why Chevy has the front end 3" lower then the rear
Thanks
Ken

I haven't messed with the intakes on the new trucks, I know after 09 they changed the MAF. Keep the same pipe you have, find a muffler you want and cut the stock muffler off and weld up the one you want and put tips on if you want. The truck is detuned to hell from factory, contact Justin at blackbearperformance or Charlie at gowheatley for a custom tune. NO superchip, bulldog, jet, hypertech, etc. they do nothin for you. The keys you have in there should be able to crank up to level it. Jack up the truck and crank on both sides the same amount and drive around to let it settle then measure it out

"The truck is detuned to hell from factory"
I certainly feels like the engine is capable of a lot more, It feels like a caged animal that needs to be let out.
Are those guys in this forum?
Thanks

I've heard these 6.0s run like a raped ape when tuned by these guys. I've got my 01 5.3 tuned by Wheatley and he did a great job, and no I don't think they're on the forum, just shoot either one of them an email and they'll get back to you
