I'm new!! Cold air intake
Hey, I'm new here,,, first Mustang! 2022 GT. Love it! Traded a Dodge Challenger R/T for it,
Anyway, is a cold air intake worth doing on it or K&N filter... or leave it alone? .. I read that on these new ones the stock air cleaner/system is as good as anything...
Thanks!!

Welcome.
The 2022 is already a "cold air intake" since it has a snorkel to the front grille pulling air into the intake. The aftermarket CAI is an open element typically which can introduce the hot engine bay air into the intake. No real benefit to it performance wise, but some like the look better and there is additional intake noise.
As far as the filter, supposedly the K&N will breathe better.
