Doing some digging around and it looks like the part I don't have is called an : Air Baffle - GM (23507393), Maybe.
That’s weird... Mine is a 2016 too, I don’t know the build date but I’m assuming it wasn’t built too far away from when yours was. So the stock intake was just an open hole, there was no air channel?

The photo shows the GMPP intake installed and the empty spot behind it. If your close to Woodstock, I can met and show you.

I’m actually about 3 hours away. I’d definitely mention that when you get your car reprogrammed, or hell I might just give the dealership a call and see what they say before you go. Shoot me a message if you want to try to meet up sometime though. I don’t knoe too many people on here from GA.

Got the reflash completed, no issues at John Thornton over in Lithia Springs. Took less than an hour and no charge, I already completed the install. They also told me that the Air baffle might not have been part of the early round of cars. The part is less than $50.00 to get, I might just order and see how hard it will be to install. So far with less than 50 miles with the reflash, it seems to have alittle more pick up, So for me a good purchase.

On a side note should I add any type of heat insulation to the air filter box?

I've been up to Lithia Springs a few times, me and my buddy were up that way looking for a new car for him about a month ago. That's interesting about the air baffle not being on the early production cars though, I'll have to look up my car's production date. Not sure how much difference it would make hp wise, but it seems like a longer channel for the air would speed it up a little bit. Glad you're enjoying it!

Can someone do me a favor who has the V6 with the GM CAI. Can you take a few photos of the air baffle that connects to the CAI. I'm debating on getting one, since mine wasn't installed from the factory. PM me if you need my email address. Thanks in Advance

I believe I have that piece. is the general thought, some of the older cars didn't have it or did have it?
