When I had my 1991 GT I also had a 1996 Beretta Z26 so I could afford to beat the GT.
My best time all stock except for a K&N Filter was 14.7 @ 96mph with quite a few low 15's. These runs were on BFG Comp T/A VR4 tires.
As for the CAI stuff, on a Mustang GT they are all about under hood bling and nothing else. A simple K&N drop-in and snorkel removal or shortning flows just as good. When I had my 2003 GT I always thought it was funny when guys would preach about there huge CAI and MAF housing. Take a peek inside a stock upper plenum and intake inlet and it's pretty easy to see that the biggest intake in the world won't make alot of difference.
My GT was all Ford Racing and I made more power with the intake mod, cleaning up the upper plenum adding a FRPP 70mm TB and small upper plenum spacer than guys with full CAI and upper plenums.

Now on the 07 Shelby GT500 people are gaining 80-100RWHP with a JLT intake and tune but I will say again people with just a tune are seeing 50-60RWHP with just that.
