Considering I have a Coldairinductions CAI on my 3.5L 2006 Monte, I would like to chime in on this. The 3.9L CAI DOES fit the 3.5L as a direct bolt in. The MAF on the 3.5L (at least the one used in our Monte's) is NOT part of the factory air box. It's after the air box. However, when removing the factory air box, you do need to unbolt unscrew the MAF housing from the lid of the factory air box. I used coldairinductions box, and connected it right up to my factory corrugated rubber hose, which has the MAF housed at the end of it in a hard plastic about 4" long tube. The coldairinductions air filter bolts directly to the factory MAF housing. The system works awesome, I highly recommend.

Here is a picture of my set up on the 3.5L...direct bolt in, no modification done.
