None are worth the expense. I have the SLP CAI that I found somewhere cheap, it doesn't really help. Sounds cool, but doesn't do much for you.
Cut the lid and go with a good filter.

I would be careful not to over oil the filter. Supposedly it coats the MAF and screws it up. Not sure either way but I have seen people put on the K&N with it dripping oil. Some is good, more is better or so the story goes.

I added a Vortex Rammer to my '89 for a throatier engine sound....and the name. "Mister, what is that? Son, that's a VORTEX RAMMER!"
The restrictions on an L98 are the intake and runners. Everything before and after them flows at a higher rate already, so adding more flow doesn't do much. Some really good numbers here:

It's really eye opening.
