1999 Chevy blazer CAI
 

Okay Hello my name is Edgar Cervantes and I am 17 years old.. I have a 1999

Chevy Blazer with 81k miles it is 2wd 4 door LT I am trying to get a CAI

to have better performance in the vehicle.. what is a CAI that you guys with

experience would recommend and wont break my pocket??? any help would

really be appreciated Thank You in advance!

I have the K&N intake and it seems to be pretty nice. AEM is another great brand. Both will cost you upwards around $200 or more.

A cheaper option is to get the cheap ebay intake ($40-60) and a K&N cone filter ($40-50) and then make your own heat shield. The heat shield is the most important part and most of the ebay intakes don't include one.

I found this kit on ebay... would it be considered a heat shield?

Yes that one has the heat shield. I would try and find one with a K&N filter, I think I saw one before that included a K&N brand instead of the no-name brand they typically come with for not much more.

Also, in the DIY/How-To section, there's a write-up on how to make your own heat shield if you wanted to go that route

I have one im trying to sell, pm if your interested. Ebay cai with k&n filter and recharge kit and a custom heatshield i made.

i got my cai.from jegs.com for 105.00.love it but try changing the filter that comes with it.not really good.i took it off and boght one from autozone for 40.00 its nice looking too.still have it,its cone shaped.oh,and the cai comes with a heat shield too. or u can go to amazon.com too and loof for it maybe a little cheaper.i added a throttle body spacer too and put a tornado inside the tubing.hope this was helpful
