Check out the K&N aircharger, it comes with a heat shield but do not know how effective it will be. Have not seen a Dyno but claim is 8-10 hp and 10 ft/lbs tq.

Get the Comptech. Its easy to install, sounds great, no chance of hydrolock, and no cutting. I think the K&N in very pricey if that matters.....it my not.
Here's a pic of my CT cai.


BTW Enjoy your new car!!!!

Its sounds deep. You'll like it more and more as it breaks in.

darkknight1999, is it true that the Comptech CAI makes the hood difficult to close? Some say that they can't get the hood to close all the way.

9HP is the claimed gain.

I do miss the days of gross consumer skepticism
