Air Force 1.

If you go with the AF1 make sure you get the 3" tube because the 3.5" tube requires custom tuning. The 3" tube does not.

I installed the Volant CAI system with the Hypertech III programer and have not had any problems with either. I enjoy the sound of the motor!!

I like it alot and would highly recommend it to anyone. I installed it in my driveway in about an hour and the difference was amazing. Took it out on the highway after installation and could actually feel the truck pick up and move when I hit the accelorator. It looks great and sounds just as great! Here's a few pics of it in the truck.
