crazy...I would think twice about the system you linked to. Even with that little shield on there it will still suck up a lot of underhood heat. Hot air does not make power. I have seen some Airaid systems that look like they acutally have a box that replaces the stock unit and seals against underhood heat. HEAT IS THE ENEMY! I am new to these cars but I have been twisting wrenchs as a hobby for 25 years. I would imagine that the GT's are equipped with knock sensors. Hot intake air will promote predetonation and when this is detected, the computer will pull timing and reduce your performance accordingly. A lot of times when they run the dyno tests on this stuff they do it with the hoods up and large fans blowing air at them. They do not accurately reflect everyday driving experience.
Just my $.02
