PM mike05gt, he can help you.
and no you wont need a tune after you install one. if you go with a bigger MAF, then yes. but for just a CAI.... no.

The best CAI for the 2005-current GT is JLT and C & L. Both of these require a tuner , but well worth it. If you buy a CAI that does not require a tuner than you are wasting your money. JLT states 28-32 rwhp gain.
I have JLT set up 0n my 2005 GT and love it. It really woke the car up

I would think that tuning helped with this impressive gain of horsepower. I would expect that you could get 18-22hp from tuning alone, if not a little bit more. Adding the CAI just improves those numbers.

well i think that you should tune first then test, then install CAI, and then tune and test agian. I know everyone knows this, but how many have done it? is there a inground dyno in SA??

I personally love the C&L CAI. It does require a tune, but as the people before me stated it's well worth every penny because it really wakes up the car.
This pic is from early 2006, right after I installed the CAI but before numerous other mods that now reside under my baby's hood. :)
