You are not going to see any real HP gains with the typical bolt ons with this car or at least the money spent to HP gained is going to be way off. I know it sucks but you are best to just accept it and spend your money in the handling department. For the price of a Cobb CAI you can get a set of springs or a nice sway bar and get far more out of your money.

Now if you just want to make a bit more noise, which is fine if thats what your in to, you can get the Cobb setup but it is pricey or do what PWT said and get a drop in and bend a pipe to the fender.

A number of us have messed with this for a couple years and it always seems to come back to the factory setup is not that bad with maybe the addition of a drop in K&N.

good luck!
