Looking
yes that is the growler cai he was talking about ... yes you can get them for the sidi (not sure about the 3.0L though but i imagine they would be the same)
are they worth it ...
let me start by saying i have one and i love it ... as for that ... no not really worth it ... if you dont already have an exhaust they add a very nice growl under acceleration ... but once i got the exhause fitted i dont hear it anymore ... however they have been rumoured to increase power by about 10kw's when on a car with exhaust ... i garuntee mine didn't add that much ...

another you should try is the air hammer CAI ... which i know a lot of people rate as better then the ss inductions ... and i know the mace engineering stock one for your car ...

so i hopw that helps ... i dont think they are worth it but i still have one

i mean its says upto 12kw's but it doesnt say definate 12kws the increase might be small or u might get a massive increase it depends on what u have and what its works well with it. i have a growler on my old omega and its went alot better then i put an ss exhaust standard of a ve and its as if it lost that growl but it felt faster. i was gonna get a dyno test to see were i was but my bro had an accident in it and it was a write off
