If tyhat CAI doesn't have a custom tune, then it's not doing you a damn thing; maybe 3-5 RWHP at best. Pair it up with a good custom tune for about 15 RWHP or so, better shift points (if you're an auto), better throttle response and improved overall driveability. About 70-80% of the forum members are running non-OE tunes.

^I'd have to say more towards the 80%. After that, grab yourself some gears (3.73 or 4.10). Then if you're still thirsty for more power, grab yourself a supercharger (vortech, x-charger, etc, etc).
