I've been researching, looking for a cai for my 2013 lancer gt 2.4L. Havnt seen much. Was Wondering if older models fit the 2013? or what my options are.

 

I have a 2013 gt as well. All the research I've done on forums and aftermarket websites tell me there is almost no differences between ours and the 2012. From the 09-11 gts its mostly cosmetic differences engine bay remains untouched. I've been looking at the injen cai myself. As far as gains, guys with the gts's say they get noticeably better throttle response. For me its between the injen or the k&n sri. Look around for prices, I think Amazon has the best. Keep in touch
Good luck

 

I'm pretty sure the Injen CAI for the 2.4 would fit both your cars. I have a 2009 GTS and just installed my Injen CAI recently. I absolutely am in love with the gains and response. Seems to have given a little more zip for sure. Also the sound combined with my Injen full exhaust = AMAZING. +10 points for sure.

 

dont bother with an intake get a tune and a high flow filter + ralliart snorkel.

I have had a SRI (2 kinds), injen CAI and 3 different high flow filters...it wasnt until after the sri/cai that i got a tune. The tune + stock paper filter felt better than stock tune + either intake. Once i went to a high flow filter and the ralliart snorkel i felt even better response, now i have the performance without the noise of the intake and without the risk of damaging my engine.

 

I have the unkempt CAI on my 2.0 and I felt the gains... It was one of the best purchases for my car besides my catback
