That is to say - just about any intake mod you do will provide great results.

Third... get a decent tune......

I enjoyed modifying my SRT6 - what?? - going on six years ago now!!

With the exception of the idler pulley failure - I've never had problem one. The SRT6 always passes California smog. I still have both Cats - (but they are hot swappable) I still have the OEM muffler.

That's six years of instant throttle response on the freeway during my 35 mile M-F commute .... and tons of fun in the canyons....

And posting the fastest times ever recorded with a SRT6.. Period...

And my favorite part...

All the mods totaled under $2K....... enjoyed being the first owner to venture out and install each one of these mods.. and enjoyed sharing it with you all...

The SRT6 never grows old with me..... nor will this forum or the members...
so basically you're saying that installing only the DCAI that both sl 55 amg or needswings, the power increase is minimal if you do not also mounts the pulley, you suggest to 64.7 mm?
