I just ordered the upgraded unit tonight.
Got it directly from WMSRACING.COM
I got the 94mm inlet, SCT 2 programmer and the ram air box.
Should get it in 2 days.
I'll try to install it slow and take pics.
I'm glad I got my hood lift kit installed, I won't have the hood prop bar in my way.

I've got it on my 05 that I just traded for an 06. It's definitely a good intake, but after much deliberation, I would not go with it again on my new car. I would go with the C&L or Tunable Induction. With the other units you can pretty easily put things back to stock if you need to. Not so with the WMS because you have to move the coolant reservoir. Doing this involves cutting some of your stock coolant lines and splicing them with new pieces from the install kit. The install is quite a bit more detailed than any other kit, and I just don't think it gives that much improvement over the other basic cold air kits.

If you decide to go ahead and order though, I would order direct from WMS and get the factory seconds airbox. It'll save you about $40 - $50 and is perfect except some of the holes are just a little off center. Mine went in without a problem. The only thing you may have to do is loosen the radiator mounts to move them just a smidge to fit the holes on the box and then tighten them back up.

I've got pics of the install on mine in my gallery. You can click the little camera icon under my screenname to see the pictures.

PS: Another important point is that you will not see huge performance gains from the intake unless you get the right tune for it. I got mine custom tuned by Brent at Brenspeed about 2 months after the install, and it was night and day. Brent also sells the intake as a package with the SCT tuner and his tune specifically for this intake. You may want to check that out. I'm not sure if he also sells the airbox, but you could also order that separate as factory seconds from WMS.

Good luck.

I take it you had the older kit on your 05.
This is the new 94mm big bore kit which requires a tuner.
Either way its been ordered and I'll post pics of the install.

Yes I had the regular kit on my 05, but it is not the "older" kit. The 94MM kit has been available for awhile as well. I believe they were both released at the same time. But, you are right, you need a tuner for the larger kit. I did not have to tune mine for the smaller kit, but did see a huge difference once I did have it tuned.

I like mine. It just made more sense to me to have the intake at the front of the car rather than stuffed down next to a wheel well.

This is the intake that should have been on our cars right off the showroom floor.

Check it out: The is also weather stripping available to make the top of the ram hood air tight to the hood.

I'm going to be driving my Mustang in the winter here in Michigan. Would running this or any CAI for that matter be safe in the winter?
