Finally Installed K&N CAI in 6.2

[Charlie207]

Yes. I have the Airaid MIT, which is essentially a polished tube (inside) to connect the stock CAI air filter box to the engine intake. I use a Wixx filter.

I purchased this at the recommendation of @BlackBearPerf as a way to clean up and remove the OEM intake tube with all of its noise reduction baffling, while still maintaining the OEM CAI air filter box. I do get a bit more intake 'noise' with it when I punch it, but it is cool.

Your power steering fluid resevoir looks like mine.

Interesting that you noted that. It looked real bad, and I had it replaced about 6 months ago.

That's not good. does mine look like it's failing?

I might replace mine in the spring.

I want to see the videos, please. As far as I know, the 2013 Yukon Denali already had CAI as a stock build (draws cold air from the tire/fender well and not warm air from the engine compartment). If your KN CAI is now drawing air from the engine compartment, you now do not have a CAI, but instead, you have eliminated it.

I'll wait to see the videos before forming a final opinion.

Truth. A quality drop-in filter with the stock setup is more than perfect. I prefer paper replaceable filters than the oily reusable filters.

I tried the oily reusable filter, but I went back to paper, as I did not see an appreciable buildup of particles on the reusable oily filter (meaning that they probably went right through it and into the engine.

I love my $15 oil-free reusable AEM filter
