FAQ

What is the 201-285?

An Airaid vehicle-specific intake assembly with the manufacturer-listed dry filter.

Which vehicles are covered?

20142015 Chevrolet Silverado 1500/GMC Sierra 1500; 2015 Chevrolet Tahoe/Suburban 1500 and GMC Yukon, with 5.3L V8. Match the engine and year, not just the model name.

Which filter does it use?

The manufacturer identifies 721-472. Do not oil this dry-media element.

Does it include a replacement airflow sensor?

No. The instructions call for transferring the original sensor; retain the specified vehicle components.

Can I assume no tuning is needed?

The current manufacturer listing calls for custom ECU tuning for optimal results. Confirm the exact calibration with Airaid and your installer; no no-tune promise is made.

Is it street legal for every application?

The older sheet discusses CARB and replacement emissions labels, while the current page has California restrictions. Confirm the current exact-vehicle approval with Airaid before ordering; no street-legal exemption is asserted.

Is a fixed power or mileage gain guaranteed?

No. Results vary with the vehicle, calibration and complete build. No fixed performance increase is promised.

Can I use service products for any filter?

No. Match the cleaner and service procedure to the actual dry or oiled media; those procedures are not interchangeable.
