been talked about ad nauseam.
the system on the new Q is as good or better than any CAI. aluminum gets hot and the objective is to get as much cool air in the engine as possible.
my suggestion is to save your cash for the extra money you will spend in petrol and just get a GOOD aftermarket filter to pop in. the filter case for the new Q is quite roomy and not as restrictive as prior models (I had 2 armadas).
adding a CAI alone will not gain you anything noticeable by itself. you have 7 gears in the car so you save a bit of petrol there. plus the VVEL DIG engine gives you more savings.
if anything remove the stock muff and resonator and install an aftermarket muff OR do a full cat back exhaust.
