WMS High velcity CAI all the way. i have it on mine and i wouldnt want it any other way. the one they sell for the v6 doesnt require a tune but will preform better with one. it takes some time to install because you have to move your radiator overflow tank. (i also flushed my radiator while doing it just for the hell of it.) it moves your intake right behind your grill allowing for much colder air to come from the grill and in between the hood and body. i got mine with the ram air box and it cost $405 then i got screw by UPS when they charged me for tariffs because it came from canada.... $430 out the door well worth it and you can notice a little more low end torque with out the tune IMO but im getting a true dual FRPP soon so ill have a tune with that. hope this helps.

That sounds way cheap and you get what you pay for so Beware....
It was a true dual conversion, no Y-pipe.

As for the welds, to be honest, I have no idea, but he did say that if theres any problems, or if I want to swap my H-pipe for an X-pipe, just to bring it back in, and he'd take care of it.

i dont have pics of mine but here are links to some pics from the website.

http://www.wmsracing.com/wmsweb/product1564.html (ram air box) - also a good picture of what it looks like installed

http://www.wmsracing.com/wmsweb/product3.html (v6 intake)

its pretty easy to install you just need to let the engine cool obviously and have the ability to drain your radiator.

if you have any questions just let me know.

DUDE, that thing is crazy.

It would work good with that Cervinis (?) hood with the two inlets in the front.

ya also it would work better if you had a higher raise in the center of the hood. the way it installs has it naturally tilted down so that it works with the stock hood. i had to trim my hood blanket around the filter because it was resting on top of it and you could see the dirt that it was sucking up. WMS also sells a hood blanket that would work better then the stock but i dont know if i want to pay the taxes to ship it. lol

you know if there is an intake manifold for the 3.8L that would allow the wms intake to work?

I ordered a pair of GT500 take-offs from Ebay for 26 bucks, plus 24 shipping, so 50 total. I got them in the mail today and they look perfect. My point is..... You can get take-offs cheap!
