Yea, only a hair though, but it does help out a little, but on GT mufflers you won't notice the change, you would probably have to get aftermarket mufflers to really be able to tell even the slightest change.

Is it true that there is more of a gain with a CAI on a split port vice an sn95?

94-98 V6 Mustangs= 150 bhp
99-04= 190 bhp (2004 3.9= 193 bhp)
05-06= 210 bhp
94-95 V6 Mustangs = 145bhp
96-98 V6 Mustangs = 150bhp

I had my stock 95 auto stang dynod : 124hp 174torque at the wheels. Figure from there.

The only good thing about the 94-98's is that they have really good torque ratings.

Ive heard it is arguable wether the aftermarket CAI's really do anything for 6's. your data?
CAIs are more stepping stones for bigger or more mods, and they increase throttle response a bunch. You can really tell the difference in throttle response.

this is depressing! I cant wait till my engine blows so I can get a better one. Your opinion, a 4.2 or a 05's 4.0? Those new mustangs have lots of power on the v6's and a **** load of parts
