Depends on what software you get. I would get Stage 2 software, they tune the software specifically to use with their CAI. However, they do, do Stage 1 software testing with an K&N Free Flow Air Filter. Granted there maybe a marginal difference there, but I would go with what they recommend .

Stage 2 software will run you $599.99 and the CAI will run you $739.99. But you do get 15% off of that total price with a mail-in rebate. The dealer has to do the Software and will charge you about an hours worth of labor. The CAI you can do yourself or have them install it and it is about 2 hours of labor.

I got the Stage 3 software, CAI and Throttle Body after discount and labor for about $2000. To me, it was worth it. However, to others maybe not.

The shifting in this car is all but strange.....so any smoothing out under deceleration in DS and surge in D under acelleration would be a huge welcomed improvement!
