will skipping the air box trip a CEL?
I was thinking about getting rid of my factory air box and replacing it with a K&N cone filter. Just wondering if doing that will trip a check engine light on the vehicle. Also would the gains be worth it vs. having a factory air box with a K&N filter?

You are better off with a K&N drop in than adding a "hot air intake". If you want to grab some colder air then try out what I did.
Or if you don't want to cut a hole in your fender-well then you need a way of sealing the air from the motor out of the filter area. I liked the Lingenfelter shield the best but you can make your own too.
Heres a thread on making your own heat shield. Without one the mod is worse off. https://ls1tech.com/forums/cadillac-...88-intake.html

I have a stock airbox cutout with a K&N panel filter available, since my new intake setup. see pictures and send PM if interested.
custom airbox below that my fabricator will make 5, if I can get interest. tube only or with airbox.

great setups in this thread...
the tube with MAF incorporated is nice. i wonder if it will match up with the Lingenfelter shield to match the LPE MAF and extension.. nice
