What intake are you using to switch out with.
I know K&N, if purchased new, will send a dyno sheet along with the parts that show what improvements to expect.
If you are using a good CAI kit, you can look at around 5 to 10hp gains. In a car with the SXT you are not going to really notice that. CAI's also work better if you have done an exhaust swap too. Allows the engine to breathe better. If you are going to get more air into the engine, you need to get rid of it just as quick.
