How do you reset the computer after the K&N drop in and should everyone have to do that? Sounds kinda annoying.

As for it being an auto with MAF should I go the CAI route or stick with the drop in?
if its auto its pointless matter of fact most of the mods are pointless LOL do a auto to manual trans swap

If you have MAF go with the cold air. But if you have MAP it wont do any good, that's why with MAP we just use the drop in.

yea mines the auto and i prefer it over manual, but that's just me. i know there are people who will ONLY own manual vehicles. i wont buy a manual unless its a perfect truck at 10% the price. i cant stand manuals lol. also iv noticed increases in my truck and its an auto.

Ill let you know how much better mine is after I do the timing in a week. The drop in did help a little. Auto....manual.....doesn't matter to me. I prefer manuals in my mustangs though. Family thing I guess.

The way I use my truck, the manual is better. Nothing wrong with a good auto though especially when it gives you MAF.

I think the drop in was the better way with either.
