I have a 04 GT with O/R H pipe and flows I want to work on better airflow becuase I hear the stock set up restricts alot of air coming in.

Some people say CAI's are a waste of money others say they help??

Should I just get a new filter and leave my stock setup or get something else.

Any inputs would rock

Thanks

Dave

First thing most people do is throw in a K&N and then pull the air silencer out.

If they were restrictive, then I wouldn't be making the kind of power that I am, and I even have the snorkel on it. I just dropped in an Accel Kool Blue filter.

you have a plenum right? that helps out more than the filter. Im not saying K&N's are restrictive, but they dont make any type of mad power. they are a definite inscrease from the paper filters that come stock.
