Cold Air inductions or Roto Fab CAI??

Benefits of one versus the other?

All intakes make about the same, pick one based on what you like the looks of.

+1.

I prefer the factory look over the bling of after market intakes. It also doesn't have an oiled filter.

GM Z/28 CAI here too. Same reason as above, like the look of stock. But would probably go "bling" if I was blinging out the engine compartment.

No knock on the Vararam, I just like the look of the C.A.I. intake.

Seriously, what do you guys even try to accomplish with CAI's? Those are literally a horsepower meme, it just gives you better flow and can actually be bad for your car without a proper tune. I'd rather put that 300ish down on a H/C kit or some nitrous but to each its own

Jannety Racing put out a comparison of a few (8) of the most popular intakes for 5th Gen's a few years back. That's a good place to start. I just saw it on the interwebs, but I'm too dumb to link it hear.

Your search has ended. Or it should. GM Z/28 CAI. OE, strong MAF included, zero issues... Nuff Said.
