With only a cold air induction kit on your vehicle, there are a lot of better ways to spend money if you're looking to add a little horsepower or acceleration.

thats not all i have but i cant get gears right now and heads or cam or anything like that is out of the mix because of parental involvement

IMO, the 90 degree turn in the fenderwell mount hurts more than it helps, if you want to go with a CAI, get a C&L tube with the filter straight off the MAF. Also seen the longer conical filters produce more hp than the shorter ones. Maybe only a couple, but attention to detail is what they teach us. I know you thinking "it's not really cold air if it's in the engine bay", steeda sells a plate that blocks most of the engine heat or you could make one yourself, either way, replacing even the restrictive stock filter is good practice. Just FYI.

When my Stock MAF went bad on me I changed it out for a 75 mm Granitelli. I think I noticed a difference...not real sure..maybe on top end. But for the $200+ it costs, I'd do something else. Lower $/hp and now I'm looking at making other changes and I have to either get it matched to different injectors or buy another unit.

Gears are the best, if you can't get them and don't run a big sound system get underdrive pulleys. Those I did feel a difference.
