SW CT,
This testing just reaffirms the fact that the stock airbox flows plenty of air and the restriction is the intake tube with all its "silencers".

This makes me feel good about my choice of Airaid Jr!

Agreed that this unit is probably the cheapest of the bunch and the gains are just as good. What filter are you running on your truck?

BBP,
For this test, what filter was installed in the Airaid Jr? How much is this piece for a 2008 Tahoe with 5.3L?

I wonder if using the cold air box from airaid, you know the one with the tube that goes down to get cooler air, and there filter give you much more gains compared to the jr kit. Just wondering bc it's the CAI I just ordered.
