Default G8 GT CAIs & HP Gains

Just trying to do a general thread on CAIs for the G8 GTs/GXPs and their HP gains. Post if ya got 'em. I ordered a JeTTTstream today, so I'll have mine up sometime soon.

Preferably post before and after dyno #s and/or track times. Also include any intake mods such as HSRKs or Lower Panel mods as well.

Hopefully this thread will give people ideas on bang for buck CAIs.

Did you have to get the IAT relocation kit or the MAF extender when using the Jetttstream cai?

No, but it's an option I would recommend, to avoid having a heat soaked MAF in stop/go traffic or in the staging lanes @ the track.

You may want to check out either of the below G8 Sites. CAI/Tune numbers and track times are available for all the major CAI and tunes including HSRK (Heat Soak
relocation Kit).

Update: Went to track, 20* colder than last time I ran w/ stock setup. Gained .6 sec and 8mph, some due to temps, but no doubt the CAI helped. This was w/o doing the M3 trick, so the car shifted right before going through the traps so another tenth and maybe 1-2mph was lost. Great CAI for 1/2-2/3 the price of the others.
