I was wondering which of these would get me better performance. Once I complete my car with NOS setup and Supercharged, which would benefit the most. I was looking at http://www.marchperf.com/pg32.html#46pp and thinking about installing that and buying a mass air flow filter, but do not know if a air intake would do more.

What ^ he said sort of. Where it's mounted will play a large role in where you gain power. If you can get it in a high pressure point it will offer more at lower mph.

those below the bumper ram air kits tend to suck up lots of debris and water when it is raining, so I wouldn't recommend you get one that hangs down low on the road.

I believe the one that I linked above, goes near the fog lights or in the scoop at the very bottom of the front bumper. I'm not sure where else I could put it, unless I could somehow get it to fit where the grill would go with a grill delete kit. Also, if you have any other links for better Ram Air kits, please post them.
Umm if you do a grill delete and put a huge intake in front of the radiator what's gonna keep your pony cool on those HOT (LOL) KS summer days? There is a reason cars have grills. Not trying to come off like an ass just trying to get you to calm down and think a lil b4 you do something stupid. I realize that there is nothing more exciting than building a fast car, but honestly why don't you anwser this first ...How fast do you want to go? NOS supercharger and some gears should make you happy if not I suggest you start with a frame and go from there not a 2000 GT. just my $.02

Yeah, but say he went the cheap-o way for power first. IE: Nitrous and a few boltons. There's nothing stopping him from adding a fendermount CAI.
And you DO know, you're going to need a lot of **** done just so your car can take the abuse of both forms of FI... It's going to cost you quite a bit.
I dropped a 5.0 into my 240Z. I'm using the twin snorkle stock air filter. The Z has lots of room in front of the rad and between the girll. Thats where the FI Z cars have their stock air filters. They are mounted above the bumper. So, I had this brain storm. Why not run twin K&N filters up front to the stock sealed air filter? Something like cold ram air. Anyway, it would look pretty trick. People will think I'm running twin turbos!
I ran ram air thru the front fascia spare hole. Car seemed to perform better than any of the two c.a.i i have used. Since replacing the front fascia, I now run a c&l true flow pipe and open filter w/ heatshield. The ram air was better, even under 100 mph. You can build a better quality Ram Air for less than 1/3 the cost of the March.

I would run a tube from the parking light just remove the lense.....I agree with old roundman..those are great but using a supercharger and getting depris will junk that S/C in a hurry.......I have seen hoods that have a place for a CAI for a s/c app.

a filter alone won't do anything. you need the pipe to keep the air as straight and smooth as possible, unlike oem intakes. what kind of superchargers have you looked into? cause, kenne belle comes with the cai, filter and i believe tb also. it'll only set u back about 3500+ not to mention all the crap u have to do it.
