Short ram.

Turbos cars don't like long segments of piping prior to the turbo.

you forgot the option of NONE...most guys on here will tell you the stock intake is sufficient, at the most a K&N drop in will yield the most gains, but what do I know, im still stock on the intake.

The better your intercooler, the less CAI will help.

I got the intake for sound
The little it would give me I couldn't care less.
It's the other shiat that's da powermakingstuff.

If you're not into whoosh sound get a manual boost controller to hold your boost steady and/or a mail-in dynoflash.
