Save your money and yank the silencer and MAF screen,then while you're at it add a high flow air filter.The gains will be about the same as you get by replacing the factory intake.

JLT hands down. But I'd go with the other guys idea of just yanking the silencer and deletingthe MAF screen.

there have been tons of intake tests and the jlt intakes always seem to outperform everyone else. Not just with our cars either, even on cars like the gt500 and 3v aswell as the cobras. JLT always seems to be the best. But they are pricey
