i'll tell you from personal experience i did not like the GMK CAI. I felt like it would run out of breath at higher RPM's...and sure enough when i put the short ram back on i swear it was quicker! With the CAI it really did feel like the gears dragged out in the upper RPM range! Soooo...

I went to Home Depot and bought a trash can and made a heat sheild...and then i took one of my pipes from the CAI and stuck it in the hole that i cut, with the hole facing out of the front bumper. Then i took a metal box i found in my garage and cut it up. I then took a cereal bowl from my kitchen and cut it too fit inside the metal box. The bowl is like a funnel that forces and air into the tube which then forces air in the engine bay and take some pics of it and post them....
