What did you do to your NBS GMT800 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

[#1taho]

Probably why they can sell them for so cheap. Looks like the Spectre filter will fit though.

Yeah. I am ok with it. I tried to make my own but couldn't get it right and couldn't find all the right parts. I was using turbo parts off or big rigs. I found almost everything except the 90 degree bend into the throttle body. It looked ok but I wasn't happy with it. Would have worked but looked like hell. In my opinion lol

I had a spectre cone filter but sold it because it wasn't cleanable. Wouldn't k+n be better in the long run ?

Possible. I will be looking in to it soon

I have a spectre CAI but i swapped out the filter for an AEM dry filter. I found them for pretty cheap on ebay, I got two so i always have a washed one ready to swap for the dirty one. I got sick of washing and oiling filters.

 

[Tonyrodz]

How do you clean them? Similar to k+n? Since it's a dry filter .

Who said the Spectre isn't cleanable? Mine had cleaning instructions right on the box. Just had to get their cleaning/recharge kit. It's the same as the K&N only not as expensive. Here's a link to the one I have. As you can see, it's definitely advertised as washable and reusable.

Thanks. I will pick one up soon to have ready for when I need it

This is the way i clean mine but i just spray it with simple green and let it soak for a few minutes because i would never let an air filter get as dirty as the one in the video.

They're both oiled media filters. Cleaning is simple and takes about 3 minutes of actual work. Just spray the cleaner on and then hose it out. Let it dry and then spray the oil on according to the instructions, then reinstall.

How's that any easier than cleaning and oiling a Spectre or K&N other than you don't spray oil on it? Which takes about 15 seconds LOL?

I heard it was cleanable also .Went to my nearest parts store to inquire about a cleaning kit but they couldn't find one lusted, so they said. I asked about the k+n cleaning kit, if it could be substituted , but they couldn't give me a definitive answer, so I said screw it! I had gotten the spectre for free anyway so I sold it cheap and called it a day.

O'Reilly's and AutoZone both sell the kits here.

If you clean the filter often like i do it takes all of five minutes and place it on the shelf to dry and there is no need to buy cleaner and oil. I never said it was easier.

And with a dry filter you remove the chance of the oil fouling up the MAF.

I see. I've never fouled the MAF but I do make sure to not over-oil it.

I put on my magnaflow 12259 muffler. I understand why most put this on. Perect tone for a daily. I washed the 1000 miles my wife put on it this week.

 

[jdpber]

After 7 years the hitch got a needed facelift and rebuild.

New BOLT LOCK keyed to my ignition key, sand blast and heavy Powder Coat, new solid stainless steel Convert-A-Ball setup top and bottom.

Cleans up nice

 

[Countryboy07]

Cleaned up today. Desperately needs a full paint correction.

I found a white overlay on Ebay for $36 shipped and installed it a few days ago, I moved some led's around to try to get the best lighting... I had to get some red needles and I wasn't feeling the all white overlay so I cut and added the stock black overlay to the top of the cluster.
I almost got the led's exactly how I want them, one more try and I will have the right side led's placed properly.

I also found time after weeks to finally wash all the sin away and detail it!

I'm kinda liking that white . I wonder if it would work for my 02 Denali. Do you have the EBay link? Your rig's looking awesome.
