Default Momentum Cold Air Intake System

I'm getting ready to install my new cold air intake systems. Any pointers I should be aware of? Looks pretty easy but you never know everything.

I put in the AFE Momentum Intake a year ago. Not difficult and no snags or issues during the install. It's pretty easy and it all fits well. AFE makes good Intakes. Take your time and it'll be fine! Have fun!

The GM Jake CAI is a nice unit .. just go with a known brand and ignore the hype.. find the one you like the looks of as they are all pretty much the same.

I like the fact that you can easily view the condition of the intake filter. Thanks for the feedback, and looking forward to the installation.
