you could look for an iceman intake. I know K&N and AEM make them for that car too. But check into the iceman.

AEM (new style) is crap - it's a warm air intake. K&N isn't much better, just has a heat shield to make it not quite as warm.

The Iceman is nice, but pricey. You do get a new battery tray though, so installation is easy for those who don't want to think hard.

Rage makes a unit that has dynoed the same as the Iceman on most cars. Costs a little less, requires work to the battery tray (or relocation to the trunk).

Then there's the infamous "ghetto" 3.0L mod. Use the intake tube from a 3.0L V6 (like a caravan), hook it to the TB, put a filter on it, and get the same gains (dyno proven) as the iceman for a fraction of the cost.

Best of luck!

The metals you'll find CAI's made out of conduct heat many times better than HDPE. End result is a hotter air charge with a metal piece. Hotter air means less dense air, which means less oxygen per stroke. Do you want performance or bling?

the iceman is the best set-up, it is expensive, but worth it.
