The CAIs for the Base Matrix and Matrix XR will work with the base Vibe. The ones for the XRS will work on the GT. That's what everyone has done around here.

You can find all the info you need by doing a search for CAI's in this forum. There are MANY threads on the subject.My 2 cents is, they are all basicly the same. Get the one that looks good to you.

I just recieved mine today. I have a Vibe GT and I ordered the one for the Matrix XRS. They are the same part number at PTuning.com and the cars are almost identical with the exception of the foglight placement which makes you adjust it a small amount when installing.
