Neither one.... get an Injen Evolution, had one on my 2018 GT and loved it.

I've used the Injen on my 2019 GT convertible and a 2016 GT. I did not have either car checked for HP before or after the install. The other point you need to consider is if you just want to install a CAI or also have the car tuned. The Injen does not require a tune but I believe that the JLT requires one and perhaps the K&N as well. This will get you more horse power but will double your cost (estimate). To make this easier, check out CJ Pony parts or American Muscle as they have these and other CAIs that show if a tune is required and also include CAIs from Roush and others. Hope this helps.

If you are looking for sound or looks I prefer the Airaid. If you are looking for power than a tune would also be needed with all the CAIs.

your 16 looks great by the way.

I see you’re in New York but are you looking for something that’s CARB compatible depending on what happens in the stupid world we live in right now? I have the Roush.

I've said this before, and I'll say it again. Any CAI that does not require a tune is worthless and is noting more than bling, PERIOD. Anyone who tells you otherwise is full of shit. And if you believe they do, I've got a bridge to sell you. The only thing a no tune CAI does is lighten your wallet.

It’s all up to them. My Roush needed the sleeve removed for the Lund tune or you leave it in if you don’t want the tune. It’s killer for me. Let others do the research on their own. It’s up to them. Spouting venom doesn’t help.

If you fully understood how the system worked, you would agree with me. And how am I spouting venom, by telling them to not waste their money on a no tune CAI? If all they are after is the bling factor, than so be it, it's their money. But if they actually believe they will gain a significant amount of HP, they have been lied to. Remember, the marketing dept of any business is solely tasked with separating you from your money, and a lot of them will lie to do it.

Totally agree…gimmick marketing

I don't read venom what's said is true. If stating a fact is now venom, that's damn sad.

With that mindset, I would be skeptical of information or advice form such a source.

Roush tune also requires the smaller venturi to be removed .

Not sure all CIA have that particular feature. So the OP might want to ask that as he is looking.

I second the injen. Swapped from roush. And never looked back.

That's most likely true, cause you were chasing the GT sporting the Roush CIA ......................LMAO
