If you dont want to mess with the CAI (no mods by the way direct fit) try the underdrive pulleys. I think theyre like $150 for both. These are a little harder to put on than the CAI though (I had to use an impact on the alternator nut).

A CAI will run you close to $200 smackers but I think you can get a Weapon's R short ram for something between $160 to $180.

Dont know too many NOS setups you can get for less than $500. He said not too expensive as well.

Yeah, I'd agree on a CAI but not the short ram ones. I'd recommend not to mess around and get an AEM CAI. You'll notice the difference for sure. I got mine at Nopi. It's $197. but as others said, you could get it slightly cheaper elsewhere.

Good luck and let us know what you eventually decide on!
