i'm in the middle of picking a cold air intake for my 96 G.T my first idea was to put either a K&N under the hood or a BBK. anybody know any better performing intakes?

 

It really doesnt matter. They're all the same. Ebay ftw! I have MAC

 

I have a JLT RAI, no SOTP gain, but a little better throttle response, and it sounds cool too. I would save my money for something else if I were you.

 

If your gonna go with a cai, go get yourself a couple of 4" rubber sleeves 4" pvc piping and fab up your own Rai or cai. That is all JLT cai/rai's are. But if you must buy a cai/rai I would recommend a JLT one. I love my jlt cai, had a hard time twisting the pvc piping in the rubber sleeve but its a nice piece, nice and clean and not the typical bling bling things you see.

 

Just go to latemodelrestoration.com and order the xcal 3. It comes with a free CAI. That's what i did.

 

ebay 50 bucks

 

Was your $50 Ebay CAI a good fit ?

 

Used like new JLT RAI, $100. If you shop around

And just FYI, I switched from a BBK CAI to this RAI, I couldn't tell a difference in performance but picked up a consistant 3 mpg.

 

What about the air silencer delete?I was going to do that instead of a CAI,and use a K&N air filter.I might be wrong but thats what i came up with reading different posts.Someone correct me if Im wrong

 

i'm not fully (CAR PERFORMANCE) literate, what exactly does RAI stand for? and from the sound of it its just like or maybe even better than K&N or BBK.
