Well, not very much actually (there is only 5 HP between the SE and GT with V6s and most of the is attributed to the less restrictive exhaust on the GT; however, some does certainly come from the increased air volume from the RAM-AIR) ... simply put, I did feel a difference after it was added to my car but if all you would be doing this for would be a performance gain, you would definately be better off buying a CAI since you get more "bang for your buck" ... personally, I did the change because I like the look and prefer it more than the CAI :D

I also did the change to the Ram Air, I prefered the look of the Ram Air. The only area where I noticed a gain was from 80km's hour to 120 km's per hour.

Thanks
