i have an 85 mustang gt t-top 5.0 standard and i was wondering if a cold air intake would give around the same power as an air ram hood

nseoi

there is little gain with either one. the ram intake hood works better at high speeds tho

so the cold air intake dosnt do much at all its prob just a money grabber

nseoi

the stock intake on the 87+ is a cold air intake since it gets its air from outside the engine bay (fenderwell). if you get a good filter you should be doing just as good. i personally think the best reason for an aftermarket CAI is because it looks better

which ever is cheaper because neither will give better hp then the other

I guess you must have the automatic w/ cfibecause an '85 5-speed would have no need for a CAI considering it is carbureted.
