first of all, here are my options:
http://www.doctorspeed.com/pon....htmlit has been confirmed that all fit except the stage 4.i am on the fence between the cold air box and the stage 2. seems to me, the stage 2 would be plenty and all the cold air box would do is perhaps an extra 2 horses. for $60 more, that's not enough for me.what do you guys think?

People are spending $50+/HP for SCs so why not spend $30/HP fo CA.

Then just save your money, 'cause it might be worth something someday.

my point is, i should be able to gain in the neighborhood of 10hp/tq (totally pulled out of my (removed)) from a less restrictive intake, considering i have 200hp/220tq stock and i have a catback exhaust.the question i have is would the cold air box version do anything worth $60 more. i'm not asking if i should get one at all, that is a definite.

>yep, "the others" i could street race if i wanted to. there's a video of a stock rental maxx (3.5, not SS) running 15.7 in the quarter, not bad for a heavy (removed) family sedan.

I'm guessing you're not going for the CAI? If you get the SR i'd just stick with that and save/spend the $60 for/on something else.

nah, no CAI for me. it's too much of a pain for a very small difference in gain.i'm pretty much settled, i'll be getting the $100 one when i can. can't wait to hear it with my exhaust!

What does your stock set-up look like? Can you post a pic?
