First, you'll get some great input in the S197 Handling forum regarding suspension. But I'll toss my opinion out and go with the Dspecs.

As far as a CAI without a tune; don't bother. Even the CAI's that don't require a tune may throw a code for running lean and will only gain you about 3-5 RWHP. The tune is the real gainer and if it's written by one of the better tuners (such as American Muscle or Brenspeed), the gain from a CAI & custom tune is on the order of 20-25 RWHP in addition to improved shift points (auto tranny) and throttle response.
