The F Sport already have a True CAI, aftermarket CAI doesn't add anything significant other than extra noise it makes at WOT. I'd skip it and save your $$ for other mods.
My Full Catback JoeZ is plenty loud enough for me.

i have it. I agree with jdpdata. it sounds a bit better under WOT and I feel like the throttle response is slightly better, but overall not worth the price tag new. If you can find a used one or one on sale then different story

I did not sell anything. I'm in the process of getting another GS so I figured I hold onto almost everything lol.

Also, I was not able to recover the CAI as you can see from the auction picture:

Good to hear you’re getting a new one. Pre or post refresh? Also would you recommend the strut? I tried contacting that company for a full set of all their braces but they never got back

If pre-refresh, nothing but the 2015 crafted line, I just loved everything about it. If post-refresh, it needs to be fully loaded. I told my sales guy this and he has been looking for the past few weeks and has shown me a few but not in the color I want. I want to make sure I am happy with the purchase, not rushing it. I do recommend the strut. It makes a very minor difference but definitely noticeable. I was glad with the purchase when I made it. Contact their US team: (707) 435-3614 / sales@ultraracing-usa.com. I've spoken to the guy a few times when trying to get custom underbracing made for my AWD GS. I know he is on CL forums but forgot his alias.
