RE: Cold Air intake 06 gt
Personally, I went with the JLT w/sct tune combo from Evolution. Huge difference in performance, great seat of the pants torque. Fred from Evo can custom tune the sct for you and you will LOVE the change in your car.
Set-up and tuning can be done in 30-45 minutes.

RE: Cold Air intake 06 gt
I just installed my JLTII and XCal last night (from Fred at Evolution). Only one run on it today to work, but the throttle response is the biggest difference I can see. Immediate reaction to putting the gas pedal to the floor rather than waiting two seconds or so before. I noticed a big difference in torque too. Not sure about hp but I guess I would have to get it dynoed to see the real difference. For me, the throttle response alone is worth the investment. Unlike others I didn't notice a big difference in exhaust sound, but maybe that's because I'm running Flowmasters already.

I just installed the SCT XCalibrator 2 with JLT II True Cold Air Intake Combo Kit
From Evolution Performance http://evoperform.com/
I recomend it highly. Car is running great, even gets a little rubber in 2nd & 3rd gear now. Thats not bad for an auto. Came with three tunes 87, 93, & 100 octane all for $525.00 shipped.

Dude...that's got to be the best looking Tunable CAI I've ever seen!!!!![sm=bounceybounce.gif]
I love the attention to detail, especially the black/silver pinstripes on the intake tube and the beautiful blue filter...the heat shield looks especially sturdy and well built. The entire package just screams "LOOK AT ME!"...too bad you can't drive the car with the hood UP so everyone could see that beautiful Tunable CAI!!

How's that? I'd say still kick the cat...you can never go wrong doing that!
If your cat's not an option my neighbor's got a couple that need some kickin!

RE: Cold Air intake 06 gt
The tunable induction intake is definitely a niiiiiceeee. I got mine with the Xcal2 tuner for my auto and I get tire chirpage going into second and third gears. Is chirpage even a word?
Most of the gains come form the tune but the intake definitely looks great and the sound it creates as well as how much better your exhaust will sound are pluses.
