I :lol: 'd...
The retirement 'gold' caprice sounds like my old 1995 T/A.
This install is worth it just for the intake sound :icon_super:
Too much traffic to wring it out... But feels better mid range & higher.

5minutes with a hole saw and $10 worth of PCV will give you all the same power without the POS gauze filter and $200 CARB bribe. Would have to switch back to stock when smogging though.

There is power to be had modding the intake tract on the Caprice, the rectangular box after the MAF commonly called "first base" is so bad just swapping it for a piece of PVC is worth like 6rwhp. The factory airfilter box only flows 450cfm, taking a hole saw to it in the front and fender side BELOW the filter gives it all the air it can handle. This gives you just as much sound as the K&N kit and lets you keep the vastly better paper panel filter.
