Yet again ebay CAIa =[:'(][:'(][:'(][:'(]

Unless you're running your car in shows, which is about all a CAI is good for, just get a K&N filter, some filter sealant to help seal the air filter in, and remove the air silencer, same thing as a CAI. You're not gonna gain more than 2-3 rwhp anyways.

The exhaust note change is worth the CAI.

P.S.

Those electric SC's are not what you want to waste your money on.

just trim the silencer to the fender, you dont want the whole opening in the bay, i lost gas milagebut really didnt notice anything in the power departmetnthere have been posts on 3.8 about removing it actually loosing power as well as i haver personally seen dan04cobras (little different i know) run a 13 flat in the quarter mile from heat.

this goes back to the whole, if it really made THAT much of a difference why wouldnt they do it from the factory?
