Just got my K&N kit on! My first mod for my '04 GTO was the K&N Aircharger kit. I know there have probably been a lot of posts about it, but it is just an amazing bang for your buck mod. 
A local performance shop here in St. Louis did multiple dyno runs with the kit installed and uninstalled, and got consistant 22-23 RWHP gains. 
After I put the kit on, I could definitely feel much better throttle response and power. Way more than I ever felt with the K&N kit on my '97 Z28.

22whp? I just cant believe that for some reason... None the less, nice gains.
Ya know, you should get that bad *** Z out of the garage and drive it around. I want a peek...

I also talked to the another guy who had his GTO dynoed before and after the K&N install and he said he saw an increase of 19 RWHP. You must also take into consideration that manuals and autos might report different numbers.
