I want to get a CAI before I get my BB Tune, I have my eye on the Volant sealed box type. What is everyone here running and how do they like it?
Best CAI for 5.3L?

I have the GM Accessories CAI. It's a little pricey, but seeing as how I had problems with some other brands on my last car (Injen, K&N) I have decided to remain with GM parts on this vehicle. If your rig has the air filter monitor you will still be able to use it. The part I really like is that you should be abe to find a K&N cone filter for this setup, however, the filter this kit comes with is a dryflow. This kit also gives a nice rumble to the engine sound, especially when you floor it. Additionally, you won't get grief from the dealer if you have this installed. It comes with a 12 month/12k warranty.

Not worried about Warranty, I have none left.

Same here on my truck. The CAI is what carries the warranty.
This is the 2007-2008 model.

This is the one I'm gonna buy when it comes time.

Nice. I paid a hundred less for the AIRAID CAI but I think I might get that one since its factory.
