i am running the moroso CAI on my 97. i like it a lot, but am going to replace it. i figure since i am doing an ls1 frontend conversion i might as well as add the air lid and everything else as well.. cant hurt anything.

Their all basically the same thing. Just get the cheapest one which I believe was the Lingenfelter one. I would stay away from the SLP one though because it has 2 filters and I have heard they are a PIA to remove for cleaning and then having to put them back on is hard too. I have a Moroso because I liked the fact that it has a metal plate to clamp the filter onto.

I like the Lingenfelter, it comes with a HUGE cone filter, plus you can't beat the price.

I wish I could see a side by side comparison of the K&N, Moroso, and Lingenfelter. The K&N plastic tube looks to be the fatter of the 2 and the Moroso looks too skinny

I know this one is a little more $ but I think it looks the best and also has a big K&N filter

i have the SLP and it looks good but the filters are hard as hell to remove if you're trying to do it from the top...

until i figured out you can remove one of the plastic panels from underneith the filters very easily and remove the filters in the blink of an eye

I had the K&N intake and the filter fell off one day and I didn't know it. So I was driving my car for probably 3 weeks before I realized it. The filter cant hold on to the plastic tube so i fixed that problem.

SLP is beautiful, and adds great power. I can chirp 2nd. My only mod was a SLP CAI at the time...I thought that was pretty cool. A4.

Only cons are its a little hard to tighten down the cones. My trick is use align the brace thing and use a quarter to turn it from the top works perfectly.

Had the k&n and the fiilter always tried to fall off also and was always a pita to get back on! The moroso fits much better and I bought it off ebay for 125.00 new! Some guy decided to sell his car and never installed it!

I've got a Moroso cai. I'll replace it sometime though. Partially because a replacement filter is $60. But, I either want to go with the LS1 lid conversion, or maybe the SS ram air intake, when I get my SS hood.
