"Installation was pretty easy, only took about an hour. Looks good in the engine compartment. and gives the truck a less factory look. I have noticed a better take off and response while driving on the road, unable to tell if any MPG has increased yet. Good sound on take off and when you need the extra power on the road. Good value for the product."

"I installed the AEM Brute Force Air Intake on my 2003 Silverado Z71 1500...took me about an hour from start to finish, it is very easy to install. Took it out for a drive and I instantly felt more power when you get on it. As far as MPG's, I do get better mileage, but I have a lead foot so theres not to much more!!! Very happy with the product and very fast shipping!!!"

"great price, directions say it takes 90 minutes, it took about 45, at best, sounds terrific on the truck, it may improve the gas mileage if i could keep my foot out of the gas"

"Well I have been using the Brute Force Intake for about 2 weeks and have really noticed a big increase in take off performance and when I really get into it on the freeway. Gas mileage I really can't say cause since I have installed it I really get into it...and makes the exhaust sound that much better. I don't have any intake noise as well coming from the intake/or either I can't hear it."

"I own a 2002 chevy silverado 1500 z71 and got the brute force intake in silver powdercoat. For starters it looks great, very impressive. the installation was very simple and only took about 30 to 45 minutes and the directions were very easy to follow and had pictures. i did not have a single problem with any of the AEM parts, the only trouble i had was with the air flow sensor, it was stuck in the stock air box. The power gain is impressive, the motor feels like it has a new life in it. i also hear a pleasing difference in the exhaust note, i have a single flowmaster original 40 series with dual outlets. it is not as much louder as it is tone, it is louder but it has a much better sounding and deeper tone, especially when you really get on it. overall the AEM is way more than i expected out of an intake, it really wakes up the 5.3in my opinion. last but not least, he selling point for me was the dry flow filter, you dont have to oil it and it is washable."
