Do you mean, Cold Air Intake? If you do, you will see only small gains.

You'll get about 10HP gains, give or take depending on which you get. I personally will be going with Injen's CAI

Well, with a turbo application you really don't need a cold air intake. A simple mushroom filter will do and sometimes you will see comprable gains with this approach.
