rpm has had problems in the past with quite a few people here. A standard cai will be fine.

a similar priced CAI

people have mentioned the most responsive power adders and efficiency upgrades over and over. Some things may not add power but improve performance. It's personal opinion what you want to do first, but intakes are always argued about how much to spend and how much power they add. Definitely don't expect 11 RWHP. Do a search to determine what performance parts you may want.

+1. do a search. there is actually a post or a sticky up top of this section that says something like "see what others are doing to their 6ers" or something like that.. check that out

personally, i would never spend 400+ on intake, TB and plenum...

go with exhaust for that much money... gives you satisfaction bc it sounds good, and you get more HP...

its a win win situation

if its an xmas budget and you are limited, get a used Tuner and a K&N drop in and remove the silencer..
