One of two ways:
1. Stay stock - as the factory intake is already a 'cold-air' intake, and performs admirably. There is no perf benefit from an aftermarket unit, as the stocker already flows enough for the stock engine, and then some.
2. IF you insist on an intake for appearance and 'sound', you must acquire a programmer that can deliver corrected tuning to render the intake safe. The BD GT is not able to do this. SCT's custom tuned programmers can.

Your choice. I'd pick #1.
good luck
