SLP Cold air intake
Has anyone run the SLP CAI? Looking at it, it seems like it simply replaces the existing air box with theirs and a cone filter, reusing the tube from the box the TB. Probably the least expensive CAI I have found yet, but like they say, you get what you pay for. Just wondering if anyone has it, and what they think og it.
As far as design, the one I like the look of the most is the one JMB Performance Fenderwell intake offered by Wbodystore.com. I like how it tucks inside the fender, looks really clean. Like I said, I saw the SLP and wanted to get some opinions from everyone here.
Yeah, the stock intake tube is a little bit of a restriction, and you still only get that small opening behind the headlight.
The JMB is nice, but I believe you have to make a small cut on your fender on the install.

Yeah, the description of it mentions it:
Not really intimidated by it, but definitely not as easy as just bolting things in.
Installation Notes - Please note that cutting of the inner fender brace is necessary on W bodies which makes this one of the more difficult intakes to install. Please email us if you have problems with the install and cut/ modified intakes can not be warranted under any circumstances.
I have the SLP, kind of disappointing in a sense. The PCM is in the front of the box so it only draws air from the side and the slits for it aren't all that big either. I have debated the next time I service my filter taking a dremel to the openings to make them a little bigger. I didn't really expect to see or feel a difference with just a CAI so 99% of the reason I wanted one was for the sound, without all the baffles and noise reduction the car does howl like an old fashioned 4 barrel. Like you said for the small $ I'm happy, have no real plans to go mod mad on the car. The CAI is probably going to be it, she is my DD and that's the reason I bought the car.
Really depends on your plans if you'll be happy with the SLP or want to spend more $ for a more complete kit.

I had one installed on my 05 and to me all it was was a glorified gutted air box with a cone filter on it. I settled on a Wizarid and couldn't be happier.
