I had a Roush CAI and all it did sound wise, was make the motor sound throatier when heavily accelerating. As for chips I had and I know many do have the Edge Evolution programmer. It definatly made a difference in shift ferocity which makes your truck quicker. As for the actual motor performance it was minimal in my opinion. Just be careful with the settings. I was hard on my truck with the programmer and my tranny starting doing weird things.
I hate it when my tranny does weird things.....
Holy crap sorry, I couldn't stop myself. That is a good warning though. If you don't know without a doubt what you're doing in changing the setting within the programmer, LEAVE THEM ALONE. Just plug it in and let the programmer do it's preset magic. You can kill a motor in seconds if you change something to an extreme and then drive it. Don't be afraid of them though, it's just like the gym. Check your ego and don't be afraid to admit you're not sure how the motor will like more global spark advance or 3% more fuel at WOT. I know just enough to be dangerous, so I don't change anything but the preset power levels with the different grades of gas I run
