K&N gets my vote. I just have a stock OEM K&N style on my mustang and volkswagen. as long as it comes from the fender then it is good.

they are all pretty much the same, and not much of an improvement over stock.

I disagree, I noticed wuite a bit more pick up in my VW golf and a bigger improvement in my civic with a full on CAI that went into the front fender. I dont know much of a difference in the stang since it was on there when I got it.

yea, i think it is the car sometimes, i have had many friends put them on their stangs, and its not much of a difference. I put one on my dd corsica, got it on ebay for 40 dollars, so i figured it would be funny to get. didnt make a difference at all. But we put one on my dads 2004 sierra and it made a huge difference. couldnt do a burnout or spin the tires, afterwards if you stomped on it you could spin the tires easily down the street.
