Cold Air Kit

Just wondering if anyone has seen this kit or owns this kit. I would like to know if it is better than the slp cold air kit and if it lets water into the engine because i live in florida which actually means alot of rain in the summer time even though we are the sunshine state. I have a 89 firebird 350 tpi.

Friend made the SAME setup only chrome with fancy clamps from Auto Zone for about 50 bucks, go look at the peices they have and you can put that together WAY cheaper.

I don't see why they would call that a cold air kit, not much cold air getting in there. I would say the SLP one is better then that kit. You probably could get the same performance if you just cut some windows in your air can then buying that one that you linked.

Go to ebay motors.com, they have a cold air intake that runs for $50 including shipping. I just ordered mine today.
