Buy a good tunable CAI and Xcal from a recognized tuner like Brenspeed or B@machips. It will cost a few bones, but CAIs with premium octane tunes are known to give as much as 30hp on an S197 GT or 15hp on an S197 V6. definitely a decent gain for the money.

RE: Cold Air Intake Fact or Fiction?

With fuel prices being the way they are. I was trying to pervent getting a tuner, and CAI. Because I'm kind of found of running 87 Octane, but I guess whats why you have 2-3 tunnings programs.

The reason why I "chose" that cold air intake system is because it says it was tunned, and seems more suttle under the hood, and I'm affraid another cold air intake will take away from the Clean style I'm trying to achieve.

Thanks everyone for your advice, and I should have said its for a S197; my bad...
