There isnt one that will make a huge difference on a stock GT. I heard a lot of good things about the C&L mass air unit with pipe but I cant say from experience. You can see at the pro mustang performance banner up above. But its not cheap. If you want cheap you can also go with ebay. I have one that doesnt have an airfilter if you want its $25 shipped. You can get an intake at the store like pep boys or auto zone. Its never used.

Well, from my experience with CAIs, I would say just go with a BBK or MAC, they aren't cheap but the cheap ones usually require a lot of work to make them fit properly like the one that I got off of ebay. But I think that if you need a new filter anyways go ahead and get a nice CAI, it's worth the washable filter, the sound, engine dress up and the almost un-noticable amount of power increase. Good investment for just a bolt on car.

mine fit great when I installed it. The only thing is the sensor that srews in will have to be replaced with a metal one sin ceou really have to torque it in there.

I baught the same one off ebay that "Convertible" got With a little triming of the pipe and a use of a K&N filter mines working great as far as I can tell.
Im prolly going to go with the BBK crome one just because I like the way it looks all crome and stuff lol.
