What is your definition of the "best"? Best looks, best fit, best HP, best price?
None of them meet the best in all the categories. Looks are a personal thing so you need to look at all of them and decide for yourself. They all fit pretty well so that's a wash. HP wise, the Halltech Yellowjacket and the CAI tested out to be the best in a independent test. Price is what you can afford and want to pay. Take a look in the engine section and do a search for CAI's. I'm sure you'll find more than you care to read. Making an informed decision is always the best idea.

lol... it's a cai... not a turbo.
+/- 2rwhp makes no difference and CAI alone isn't going to make a difference in performance. |

I'll tell what I did, I had the same situation as you now! I was undecided.. I went for CAI but after I made the order for $399 i cancelled it. They said that delivery will take place after 4 weeks because they changed the supplier who make the aluminum airway for them for SS models.. then I was undecided again between Roto-Fab, K&N, BBK, etc.
I finally decided to go for best deal, I found my best deal on K&N in Amazon.. delivery took place in few days ![]() Basically all of them are very well made & nice.. I use to have K&N intake for my 1998 Camaro V6.. I was so happy with it the sound the boost everything was perfect.. why not repeating the same thing with my 2011 SS I'll install it this weekend & post some videos for you guys before and after hopefully

Definitely not the K&N; it doesn't have the gains that the others do. I love my BBK; it was inexpensive and gives great performance gains. Hate the CAI Inc; I think the box is ugly. Roto-Fab is cool since you can color-match. It is kinda six one way, half dozen the other in my mind; the CAI with the most gains is CAI Inc. But you pay a FORTUNE for not too much gain, so... yeah. Between K&N and Roto-Fab... DEFINITELY Roto-Fab. But I suggest you have a look at BBK. It's the prettiest of all of them, and gets gains equivalent to the others. Good luck deciding.

RotoFab hands down. Quality, performance, appearance, and ease of installation. Mike the owner is an A+ guy. Their customer service is top notch.
