what mod's have you done so far? My CAI is like 5HP tops, and I paid about 100 dollars. What Im saying is that you can save your money, do a gotts mod, invest in exhaust, a programmer, and get more hp and options out of it than a CAI.

Start small.
1. gotts mod- 5-10 dollars, gain- 5hp tops
2. exhaust- 1-2 hundred, gain- maybe 12hp
get a good air filter as well
good luck. Word of caution though, the mod bug bites hard
