This intake makes the most power out of all available, I do believe. You have to relocate some things in your engine compartment, such as your coolant tank. Hence why it's not "the preferred" choice.

C&L's intake is the most popular, followed closely by the JLT II. Remember, if you purchase an intake you will need a handheld tuner (SCT Recommended). Not just for more power, but because your car simply won't run correctly without it (Or at all).

I'm not particularly fond of it.

According to one magazine review, it's only in the "middle of the pack" with respect to power. The JLT was the highest HP and the C&L was the overall best pick by raw numbers.

I think its a great idea. Should have come off the showroom floor with it.

Well, not EXACTLY! The one from Granatelli Motor sports is provided with a re-calibrated MAF so, there are no CEL's (Check engine lights). You need to follow the directions as they provide them but, no need for a tuner. Looks good when done too! They even have one that's polished.

I'm sorry, I forgot to include "Some intakes" do not require a tune, IE K&N's... whoever else. I was referring to the intakes that are at the top of the game, requiring the tunes. IE C&L, JLT, etc.

Just curious... does removing the stock air intake assy and installing an aftermarket cold-air induction system affect the factory warranty? (i only have 800mi on my 2006 GT)

I'm pretty sure if you get a K&N or one that does not require a tune you are fine under warranty. But usually tuning the car voids the warranty. If you ever need to bring the car to the dealer, just reflash to stock and take the CAI off real quick.

ROFL, the GMS CAI puts out as much HP as any other CAI with a tune out there, no tune needed because it comes with its own calibrated MAS. K&N, S&B, etc, they just add slightly more air, and thus no tune is needed. The WMS CAI is very nice looking, and I myself was interested in it initially, but after I found out about the cutting that needs to be done to the factory harness, I went with the GMS instead. My stang is my daily driver, so I have to consider the warranty for now.

Agreed from what I read the GMS does add about the same amount of horsepower. When I went from a tune to a CAI and tune I did get a slightly better throttle response, but the tune helped the most. I don't see how the GMS handles the throttle lag problem that all Mustangs have stock. Getting rid of that annoying lag is one of the best things the tuner does.

Has anyone driven a car with an intake and a tune and a vehicle with just a GMS intake? I'm curious as to how the two compare.
