I've been shopping around for CAIs for my 05 for a while... And of course the only thing the local Advanced Auto carries is the usual K&N Filter for the Mustang. And the price tag was nearing 350 bucks. So I did some shopping around on the net and found alot of different sets.

Most of the kits I've found online are offering in the neighborhood of 9-13 RWHP gains on 93 octane. But some go as far to say they're gaining as much as almost 20 horse. The only thing I thought it could be was either they're flat out lying through their teeth, or they're putting these kits on cars, then tuning them with aftermarket tuners, or something of the sort.

So I figured I'd drop a line here and see if I can get some information straight from the horses mouth.

What kind of kits have you guys personally seen add the greatest amount of HP and Torque?

I just put the C&L intake on my stang and it requires a re tuning for it. I went with the diablo sport preditor tuner. with these two combined i felt a good HP gain i would say a good 20 or so HP at least.
