Default Cheap power adders

Hey guys i have a Saleen 3V N/A. Specs supposedly say it currently has 3:31:1 ratio differential, Race Craft suspension, and Saleen Pulley. Numbers are probably a little inflated at 330hp and 340 torque. I was thinking of a cold air intake however most of the threads say that they are not worth it because of how little gains you get for the money. I also haven't seen any of these for Saleens so i'm just curious to what you guys think.

Depends on what you mean by Cheap lol. you can get a cai and a tuner for under 1000 and will work great. But my first mods on all my cars are either exhaust or cai. so I like the power gains from cai's.
On a side note i believe you can use an intake for just a GT

I totally agree.. A CAI and tune does wonders for the S197's (wish it did that for the New Edges). That would most def be a good start. Then after that, maybe some gears... My neighbor has a 06 Saleen with a V2 on it.. That could also be a option later on down the road. Good luck

Any suggestions on a good CAI then? I'm assuming it's CAI+Tune.

I've heard some pretty good things about Breenspeed. I think they offer a combo that will really wake up your S197 and will not hit your wallet to hard..
