Custom air intakes

I know a lot of people have purchased or fabricated a custom air intake/filter. Has it resulted in any performance gain?

​​​​​​​Thanks

I’m happy with this K&N FIPK




I replaced my stock air box with two intake tubes and a drop in K&N air filter.

Just reused some parts from the stock intake system when I installed the supercharger.

The outlet is at the back of the airbox, so it really wouldn't be good. It also mounts to the aluminum intake manifold, which LS/LT does not have.
