You would do well do run a search on the forum. You're going to get 10 different answers from 10 different people. Donaldson Blackwing, Vararam etc. Depends on your intentions for the car, ease of installation and so on. Good luck. BTW, I've had the Blackwing on two C5s and was very happy with it.

I have the Vararam and very pleased, although it is difficult to install and looks cheap until you have it in the car. I think it has the best functional design for maximum "ram air" effect (this is highly debatable too), but it works great with no cutting of the shroud, etc. The other popular option out now is the Callaway Honker that many people like. Two options to consider. Good luck.

I just added the Halltech Stinger SSM(otherwise stock), and a tune with very good results!

I bought the Halltech TRAP, and was very pleased with the results. Took about a half hour to install, including jacking up the front. Did not dyno before and after, but felt a noticeable gain.

I added the Halltech Stinger SSM and had the car tuned by A&A corvette performance. With just the intake and tune, my car put down 379/368 SAE. My tuner said these are above average numbers for just an intake and tune.
