hey everyone
i have a 2006 v6 mustang, and my warranty for the car is up in october so im lookin for a cold air intake. i want an intake that will get me alot of power, cept im on a budget and i dont have enough money to get a tuner.
so does anyone know of a good intake that gives alota power without a tune?
A CAI won't void your warranty (it has to be the thing that caused a problem) and all will get you better HP than stock. Mostly it removes air silencers, and increases airflow. If you're on a budget, I would go with the cheapest one, but if you can get a metal one, they're are better looking (my opinion) and usually are better because the ABS plastic holds in heat..
i would go with a JLT intake they cost just alittle more but they are made more mainly mustangs and they are proven to put out some of the best bang for buck i have one and it beat my BBK intake with a stick
A CAI won't require a tuner. It is also better to get a plastic tube rather than the metal one. Metal is a conductor of heat which means it will heat up faster.

can anyone verify this?
right now i have an AEM Brute Force intake and i love it, looks awesome and works good too, noticable difference, plus when u get on the gas u can really hear that thing suck in air, sounds mean!!
i play on getting a tuner too, the best one that ive seem on the internet is probably the diablosport predator
heard nothing but good things about them, and if u want too u can always return to stock with it
the steeda Cold Air Intake for the v6 blows, i took it out, if you want it you can have it, jus PM me lol, i would recommend either Powerhouse or JLT, Steeda makes good stuff but that v6 intake sucksssssssss, i think it might have given me 1-2 hp, lmao

I was in a similar situation as you are now. I replaced my 06' V6 stock intake w/ a AEM Brute Force Cold Air Intake and it helped my car breathe better and also increased the throttle response. I chose the AEM Intake because it doesn't require a tune, and is CA smog legal. You can add a tune and exhaust down the road and it will help the performance even more. I am selling my Mustang so if your interested, I can sell my intake for $175.00 It has less than 1,000 miles of use. I live just over the hill from you in Yorba Linda.
Which cold air intake? 2006 Mustang V6 
Intakes work!
