70 mm. A CAI is not forced induction. 75mm will actually probally hurt your performance more then help it. Look I'll make you a chart.

70mm- N/A vehicles with light/medium mods.
75mm- Forced induction vehicles, or heavily modded N/A applications.
You definatly won't lose power with the 75mm. This is one of the older internet myths that just seems to keep circling around.

The cold hard truth, however, is that a T/B only adds at best about 2-3 HP on a non forced induction car. And I haven't really seen significant gains on forced induction cars either. (unless they are really getting out of hand, say 500+ RWHP).

I realised it was pretty much a waste of money when I bought it, but it was cheap, and it looks good along with all the other intake boltons. Also, some people say they noticed increased throttle response, but I never really did notice anything.
