Is a CAI worth getting on a stock GT?

No haters please, This is an honest question.. My grandma said the car sounds awful now that it has the cold air intake, I personally like it but are there any actual gains to a stock 3800?
and if there is no huge affects, What can I do to give the CAI a purpose?
Tomorrow I plan on getting the ubend delete or possibly headers, but I'm not sure what else..
and I im not talking about a top swap either, If I wanted a gtp .. I'd get one lol, but in all honesty.. what do you guys think? I'd like some help
 




"sounds awful" ? if you mean the exhaust is louder then thats normal because the car is not starving for air anymore
 
No, HAI intake is fine. I have a HAI intake on my GTP, basically everyone who builds their own has a HAI... but ebay Small filter FTL. Go get a big spectre filter from Autozone cause its cool.
 
I've got a stock Gp, and i put on an intake the other day, i already notice a small diff in acceleration and you can tell the car is getting more air and is happier :D

Butt Dyno FTW

i'll probably end up doing that, any advantages? or just a bigger size for looks? XD
 
Btw thanks alot guys for the responses (:
and sooner or later ima get a tuned pcm but till then im sticking with the basics
 
I put.an intake on mine just for the sc wine. I highly doubt that it has any performance effects... Just makes you think your faster since you are now making all kinds of racket under the hood.

At the end of the day, you are not changing the throttle body, maf, intake mani, or exhaust so you can put a 5inch intake with a 4 ft ling filter and it won't do anything for you
