Densecharger is the way to fly. The only bad think about CAIs in a 94-95 GT, if I remember what you have correctly, is that Densecharger only gives a tube into the MAF and not from the MAF to the manifold. They say that this is due to the fact that an extra tube really doesn't help power at all over stock. However, densecharger will in theory be a better choice because of the chrome in BBK and MAC getting hot with engine temperature. Most guys say this is a bunch rubbish, and I cant really prove that there is a difference. MAC, BBK, and Densecharger are all great.</P>


Personally, I have a K&amp;N Short ram that works just fine, not really any difference in performance between the Short Ram and CAI. Just preferance.</P>
