Default GM cold air box

Does anyone have the GM Cold Air Box ( 84152141 ) ? Claims 11 HP but it's pricey.

I have it, its nice. Think the claim is 0 hp on a stock Lt1, 11hp on a stock lt4 and 17hp on a stock lt5. No tune required. You can get it cheaper at gmpartsdirect and other suppliers.

Save your money and get a BMS. No need for anything else on a stock car.

Z06. I have a BMS I need to put on. I won’t even bother with a CAI until I upgrade the blower. Just don’t think it’s needed.
