I always run CAI but never have filter in the engine bay, try to have it in fender with open air easily being able to enter the fender.  Current Tahoe not so great, box in corner with opening to fender which is open to outside air.  =/     The only difference I noticed was it seemed just a hair more responsive, oh and you can literally hear it pulling more air, or the air moving to the intake is louder or whatever.  

 

I will try to find some pics. of some DIY ones I've done.

More responsive makes sense. If you reduce the length and/or velocity(by increasing diameter) there's less inertia to overcome.

Most stock air boxes have silencers of sorts so you don't hear the individual intake strokes or hiss of the throttle plate
