I know this has been asked 100 times but I have a short ram on my GT right now and I recently found the How to for a CAI, I was wondering if there was a big enough difference to spend the 40 or whatever for the piping and the time spent installing? Whats the average power gain on a short ram vs a CAI? Any help is appreciated, thanks!

I recently dropped in a k&n filter on my st, it came with tubing so you could route some outside air directly to the filter element, would this help to eliminate the problem of heat? as the tube runs from the very front of the car by the air dam to the actual filter(a few inches away)
