Intakes

The KKM induction kit filters give the maximum amount of filter since the top of the cone is all filter as well. Most K&N units have a chrome cap which limits air from the top unlike the KKM product. However, I agree with Lou above. The more filter area the better.
 
Scratch that, I ran a search...:slam
I wonder how this filter would do in that spot behind the bumper?

Hey Eliot... I have been looking for more info on his CAI but havent been able to find it. Please post a link to what you found. I am considering something very similar but need more info.
Some possible concerns of mine are filter placement (I would like to be able to drive in the rain) and MAF location (placing the sensor farther away from the TB could possibly cause problems).

Fill me in man. I've got a jones to do some tinkering.

Thanks,

I cut under the stock airbox to get some nice 4" piping through there.

So is your filter down under by the lower grill? Does it get wet when it rains, or is your LS a fair weather car only? What kind of 4" piping did you use? I have been wanting to do something similar but I have the KKM. If there is a way to make the KKM fit vertically through that hole you cut then run piping from it to the TB that would be cool.... but I think the KKM unit is too big.
I see you kept the MAF in the stock(ish) location. Is there any problem with putting it closer to the intake filter (outside the car). It will reach for sure.
 
Yes, the filter sits in the front bumper area. My car is a fun car, so it is not driven daily unless it has to be driven. I used a combination of 4" PVC tubing and elbows. All connected together with rubber connectors.

I wouldnt move the MAF sensor too much from its stock location.

If you cut the hole under the stock air box you can just put your KKM filter under that area, it should fit, there is a lot of room under there in front of the tire.
 
Yeah I think the KKM would be too big, but I could see myself running some PVC piping donw to the lower grill in the near future :) .
I wonder if there are any noticeable, even if little, gains
