![]() I posted that response, glad you were able to confirm it. Most people think I'm nuts when I tell them CAI's are crap. What you actually need is a new mass air sensor. The sensor is what is limiting performance - it is very restrictive. It is an aluminum tube located at the back of the air box. Getting a larger, "bored" out sensor will get you some real HP (about 10) as opposed to 3 with a CAI. Check out C&L performance for info on the kit I got. It costs about $250, but is is worth it. Pro-Flow also makes one for 3.8's, but they cost about $500. C&L is at http://www.cnlperformance.com/v6maf.html. and Pro-Flow is at http://www.pro-flow.com.
