Cai It’s time to get a CAI. Other than the obvious cool looks of the WS6 Ram Air hood, what else should I be considering? Currently, the stock air box is in use.
I couldn't justify spending $200+ for a brand name. I bought one off of ebay for $40 shipped and it performs just as well as any brand name does. Fit just fine too.
This is the one I got:

After I got home I stuck an old K&N cone on the end of it instead of what it came with.. but after looking at the one it came with it really wouldn't restrict flow any if I had just left it on there.

i bought the same one you got..i put fastracing in my sig but i just realized its the same seller..anyways..mine works just fine as well and gives the cai whistle just like a k&n..im perfectly happy with it versus a expensive one..mine was just like a two hundred dollar piece and was finely done...but mine doesnt have the extension piece to put it down in the fenderwell..mine stops just short..either way that filter flows better than stock

Verdad Gallardo yeah i was a lil disappointed that it didnt go into the fenderwell to pickup cold air as i thought it would but i would just basically need a piece of pipe that was the same size and gave enough length to go into the fenderwell and the piece that connects the two...the name illudes me lol
i like the slp myself, i think it looks cleaner and it has more area to suck into. I guess the mass flow is the same once it gets to the 3" part but i like the idea of the 2 2.5".
I really cant tell on mine i got the cheap one of ebay and for some reason I just dont see it working very well I took off the cap too noticed it got a little bitter gas mileage but power wise almost nothing Im thinking about going moroso to i hear there very good for the lt1 and its a little cheaper

While running through the Summit website, I ran across this: http://www.tdperformance.com/pdfs/44...akesystems.pdf It sure looks just like the Moroso CAI yet only $130.00!

I purchased that one off ebay but i ended up sending it back. Parts just felt like junk plus it didn't fit well, im kinda picky when it comes to stuff like that. I ended up buying a used callaway honker cold air kit.

So I accidently ordered the Moroso CAI. After taking a look at it, I returned it to Summit being that the Trans Dapt number was allready on the way. It showed up. Other than "TD" cast in the plastic, it's exactly the same as the Moroso one. This puppy goes on the car in the AM.
