what i have done to mine is. instead of having the little tiny hole where the air silencer usualy is to allow air to enter my K&N, i have completely eliminated the air filter housing (tood a dremel to is and only kept the ring that clamps the filter to the sensor and one peg to hold it up, will post pics soon) it is now a 360 degree filter (ALL of the cone is exposed) it gets fairly cool air because of the currents that flow through the engine bay as you drive and yes i know it is getting more warm air. but there is definately a gain in hp. avg before was 177hp avg and now it is 182hp. <- using a g-tech properly on a really flat street getting up to 100MPH not torqing the car on shifts.

as i said above, i will post some pics soon. next step for me tho will be a new sensor. but i have seen what i have done on lots of cars like GT's that have been moded and older 5.0's and even on f-bodies..
