Default Which cold air intake

i have been looking in to getting a cold air intake but not sure on which one to get. I cant choose from either the K&N, Moroso, or the SLP. Any sugestions? If there are any other intakes out there please tell me

You should get a Air Lid not a intake.

If you're driving an LT1 like your screen name indicates then I would go with a Moroso. I had a '94 Z28 a couple years ago and it was a good piece. If you're in an LS1 then yes you need an air lid (any brand will do).

All the results are gonna be pretty much the same. If you want t3h bling then get an SLP, if not then moroso or K&N are just as good.

Can't go wrong with a K&N CAI!!! Was running a K&N CAI on my 94 Trans Am, the kit works great! K&N and Moroso do the same job; but I'm a K&N type of guy. Good Luck!

The Moroso CAI is really a good Bang for the buck choice. You can pick one up new from Summit for $189.

I just picked up an SLP Cold Air Kit from SLP Online for $185. I think it's a Christmas Special. Looks like I get bling AND power this year! I hope it looks as good under the hood as it does under the tree...
