Ordered this from Steeda yesterday, looking for info about your experiences and anything I should look out for. Thanks.

Only surprise for me was the difficulty getting the rubber weather stripping stuff to stay in place. I ended up using an adhesive meant for weather stripping that I found at Napa. I'd recommend that you go ahead and get that before you start. The rest is pretty straight forward.

Your '12 is fixing to be woke up!

Good that's what I was hoping for. I traded in a 06 gt for the '12 and was satisfied with the power the car came with and it just sorta became the norm after a while. Ready for more power!

As far as the rubber thingy that goes around the top I probably wont even use it. I have a aftermarket hood and it probably wont do me mush good as far as sealing up.

What TJ said. You are going to be really surprised at what a little tweaking will do. You are not going see 75 RWHP, but you are going to see a huge improvement I throttle response, and a strong, hard flat power band. Glad to see another fellow Alabama member on the forums.

On the 5.0, a good CAI & tune will gain about 35 RWHP, give or take a few. I'm gettin' a woody just thinkin' about it...

The torque gains are even more impressive, even at low end IMHO.

I tend to only discuss RWHP since torque gains can vary significantly as compared to HP but overall, yes, torque gains are typically as good if not more impressive with a good tune.
