I never noticed a drone from my CAI, but if it's there I'm glad it'll be somewhat eliminated!

Well the intake I installed is actually pretty good imo, the only thing it really changed was that it gave me a smoother tubing that connects to the throttle body, and it relocated the airfilter from the throttle body and put it right onto the wheel weld. Basically where the stock intake was connected. I've seen the gotts mod, and I don't think that's suppose to be put onto the 04-08 body style, I believe it's the DWV Mod that works with this generation. So basically aside from smoother tubing, the changed placement of the airfilter, and an added auxilary airscoop (which yes, does get added air from the engine bay) It's very much like stock, also it is sealed. I don't know if that makes sense or what. This is the intake, afe stage II 54-80512 to get the idea.

Are the gains significantly noticeable? What I mean by significant is could you tell the difference from what it felt like before from what it drove like after the installation? I know it's not going to add like 50 hp and 55 tq. But was it evident enough to where it was noticeable?

Thanks for your reply Jack, I really appreciate it. Your comment is well noted.

Lol actually you were mentioned in the thread in the post I was referring to regarding the DWV/Gotts mod. They said you also adapted the gotts mod to work on this generation. Maybe I should have done this mod, but I am actually quite fond of the intake I have installed already and don't really want to remove it lol.
