Default Cold Air Intake

Hey guys,

I'm new to the forums. I have a 2003 Mustang GT..it's pretty much all stock minus a Flowmaster exhaust system. I am thinking about getting a Roush cold air intake for my car. What do you think of that?

I thought it would be cool to modify it with a roush product vs. a K&N because I'd like to keep all my modifications somewhat in the ford name.

Let me know what you think...

Kinda a waste of money. You`ll get the same results with just a K&N filter for alot less $$$

You can also check out the new Summit Racing products cai's and filter systems. Look identical to what K&N Offers, just cheaper. I dont remember the link....Google FTW.

CAI is waste of money. Just get a midpipe, gears, and a tuner.

Filters are good but the metal piping hold to much heat..

By the way the JLT Performance CAI's and americanmuscle.com are supposed to have good reviews.
