best cai for 99 yukon

Gotcha. The howl is not cool to me.

I am trying to decide between a Volant 15546 and a AFE Momentum gt 54-74104. Both have boxes. Volant dry Powercore filter and the AFE is a oil treated filter. Any idea's on which brand is better?

I'm going with the volant powercore. Just ordered it today when it gets here and I put it on I'll let you know my opinion on it

If you weren't considering intake air temperature, for what reason do you want a "cold air intake"?

I didn't consider things settling and getting shifted and having a hard install. I was def. considering the temp and flow of it which is why I was looking for opinions.

Temp shouldn't be a concern with a cai versus the stock setup. Like on my tahoe the air is pulled in through a hole in the fender. It pulls air from outside the engine bay and the common notion of heatsoak on the plastic oem pipes also doesn't matter. At full throttle the air is moving through the pipe too fast to be effected. You would get a bigger benefit if you put in a lower temp thermostat as far as thats concerned. But even still any benefit to that would be so negligible you would never know it.

I just ordered the AFE momentum gt 54-74104. It is hard to decide which brand to go with. I picked the CAI with the best reviews. It was a pain in the Arse.

OK guys I've installed the volant on my 99. And looks and sound are awesome it performs nicely. But the instructions and installation process was a *****. Granted my car might not have been perfect and I ran out of daylight but still just the whole thing was a pain. I'll put some pics up later

OK everybody here's my 99 yukon with magnaflow exhaust and volant powercore CAI

I have had the k&n on my 99 Denali since 2003 or so. I have yet to have a problem with it and it does sound pretty damn awesome when I mash the throttle!! Install was easy too
