Air Intakes

Thoroughbred Diesel knows what it is like to be a truck enthusiast who seeks more horsepower, torque, and better gas mileage from your diesel truck. Many people have questions when it comes to aftermarket performance products such as what's so great about a cold air intake and why would I want one on my truck? The answers are really quite simple. A cold air intake is a system to bring down the temperature of the air going into a car for the purpose of increasing the power of your engine. Cold air is much denser than warm, humid air. Since this is true, cooler or cold air holds more oxygen for any given amount. Therefore, the more oxygen going into an engine equals the more powerful the combustion. Thus, you’re getting more horsepower with the same or better fuel economy. 

The air intake system is one of the most common and least expensive performance modifications our customers make when shopping online at ThoroughbredDiesel.com. Increasing air-flow leads to quicker turbo spool-up, improved fuel mileage, and overall horsepower increases. Intake systems come in many different styles with many different filter options. Selecting the right intake for you depends on several factors including budget, environment, and desired power gains.
