Default Cold air intake for 2011 convertible

I just bought a 2011 convertible with the 3.7 LTI-VCT V-6. What's the best cold air intake to buy for it?

Whatever CAI works on a coupe will probably work on a vert too

I traded in a 2009 Challenger R/T with the 5.7L Hemi engine for my new Mustang. I put a Mopar CAI in the Challenger. Should I go with a Ford CAI or K&N or some other kind.

Well like jdphillips said..No one really knows yet which is best... You guys are the guinea pigs lol. You're supposed to tell "us"...hehe.

But a good bet is to go for the brands that have been good on the previous years... C&L, JLT, etc...

steeda, JLT, C & L are really popular intakes for the 4.6L, I would wait for those brands. They normally need a computer flash (sct) however, real power was made with my car. and steeda claiming something like 40ishrwhp for the 5.0L w/ their intake/tune.

also, I believe FRPP(Ford) intake for the 4.6L was just a steeda re-badge.

waiting on this also, dont like the way the v6 3.7 intake was made, it should had been made like the gt´s, this one has the box kinda thing to lower throaty sound pluss it looks like its pretty crampt but any how,
did found the sct for the 3.7 wich would be a good starting point
