RE: True Flow Intake
I recently put one in my 2003 hoe, but still on the first tank so hard to fig out any effect on MPG. However, it does give a nice sound with faster acceleration and it seems I don't have to push the pedal down as hard to get my Tahoe to start moving. But, it sounds pretty well stock with constant speed. Will post when I see what happens to fuel economy.

RE: True Flow Intake
There are a few Tahoe's in this forum with the trueflow and their comments sound very positive.I believe there is a post, that you'll have to search, which discusses the XDITrue FLow. If you check out the True Flow website there are also really good videos that adda lot of merit to using a foam filter instead of paper based filters.

RE: True Flow Intake
I saw one or two and you are correct, they are positive. I've searched some other forums and everything seems to be positive. I think I'm going to persue the sealed box option.
I talked to one of the guys at the Chevy ProShop. He told me he has sold and personally used the Tru Flow Intake as well. He also suggested that I get AirRaid throttlebody spacer.
Now I'm on the hunt for a good deal
Thx!

RE: True Flow Intake
The TBS spins the incoming air charge, boosting velocity for improved atomization. The end result is improved combustion efficiency which boosts low-end torque, throttle response, and fuel efficiency. Admittly this is a hit or miss opportunity. The Tahoes have seen more hits than misses supposedly. I know I've seen posts where people have said save your $ so I'll take the hit for the team

RE: True Flow Intake
"The throttle body spacer causes the incoming air charge to tumble for better atomization of the mixture downstream in the combustion chamber.
In other words a throttle body spacer will yield a much greater fuel burn efficiency, which in turn will improve performance and improve fuel economy" -- http://throttlebodyspacer.com/

RE: True Flow Intake
How is your search coming? Did you end up with the XDI or sealed?
