I have the Dinan CAI with Alta 15% and MTH software. Dyno'd my car a few weeks ago and got 188 HP with 163 torque for the best pull. Other two pulls were 185 and 165, so it was fairly consistent. Obviously, your mileage may vary.

Are there better parts? Depends on what you want! If you want more noise and a couple more HP, then the Alta intake may be better.
