LOL...you are joking right? PLStang has one of the most modded cars in the country! Dont mean to rag, its just those of us who have followed his story over the past year or so have drooled over the engine he has built up and the times he runs.

dunno if i'd agree with PL having one of the most modded 05+ stangs in the country but a very nice car with an excellent build (wish i had it).

and +1 on everyone saying you'll feel so much more from the tune.. you max your gains at up to around 5-10hp with the intake, throw in the tune for about 10-15hp.. after my intake/tune when I floored it I said 'Holy SH**'.. I didn't expect such a difference. Riptide however said he doesn't even really notice a difference.

idk. i popped it in and hit the throttle and almost **** my pants. it was a huge difference in sound and performance. I guess ill have to wait until thursday for track night before i can actually find out if just the CAI did anything.

sound like you had some better throttle response. But also maybe every one on here that hasn't gone with the roush CAI is missing out. Maybe it secretly has a little supercharger in the inlet tube. LOL. Not ragging on you or anything but man I would like to see the look on your face after dropping a S/Cer on there and hitting the gas. Until recently mods that I've have done have never made as big as a change as I thought they would. But now my car makes me poop my pants every time I get on it, thats why my most recent mod was a bed pan in my drivers seat.

I noticed a bit of difference in the throttle response after my cai/tune. Not having an automatic there was no difference in the shifts which is one of the most noticeable things about the tune otherwise. To me it didn't feel like a "whole new car". I could feel a difference but it wasn't night/day.

I didn't need a diaper.
