The CAI intake and VMax ported TB makes a difference. Probably not as dramatic as what some might expect, but it does smooth out response over more of the rpm range. Even with these bolt ons, I find there is still a bit of lag when dropping the accelerator or when in the 1500 rpm zone.

Truth be told, I experienced a more dramatic throttle response / better pick up when I changed my oem 20's with Michelin winters/18s. Reduce your unsprung weight - as dramatic as kicking a couple of buddies out of your back seat.
