When I get the C7 I'm going to be putting a new sound system in it. I will probably be putting in 3 12 inch subwoofers, a ported box, an amp, and then front speakers and a smaller amp to power those.

So with all that extra weight I was wondering if installing a good Cold Air Intake would balance it out? Or would I still be slower than stock I've heard of guys with C6's adding up to 30 horsepower by just adding a CAI so I wasn't sure if that's true and if it would be enough? I'd ultimately like to be faster than stock so would I need to add some Long Tube Headers or something else as well? I know this is still all speculation and guessing without numbers but any advice or ideas would help me a lot! Thank you
