Cold Air Intake
#461
I've been told that a combination of roush CAI along with SCT x3, and magna flow exhaust are a great combo. Also synthamax filter, and x3 on 87 octane. 5.4 v3,2010,fx4. Anyone have the same?

I would have gone k&n if i didnt live in CA. I went with airraid simply beacuse it fits the CA standards (carb) and a buddy of mine has one also. Very impressed with it. If you live in CA, go airraid, you won't be disappointed.

I have owned both, the K&N 63 Series and I now have an airaid. IMO the airraid looks better and performs better than the K&N. I think alot of people buy K&N off reputation and it is a good one, I will say but me personally I got the airraid and glad I did because after the fact I found out it is one of only two that DOESNT need a tuner for the truck to not run lean.

Currently running the INJEN Cold Air Tuned Intake.... Love it, noticeable bottom end response and love the sound. Only thing I'll do down the road is change to a RED filter

if the box area around the cai filter is not enclosed are you really doing anything?? still sucking hot air from under hood right?? put a spectre on guy wanted $30 bucks new but thinking of taking off because it does not enclose the filter to suck cold air any help would be great thanks

I removed mine completely. I did not like the sound (to loud) and did not like losing MPG. My custom tunes from 5Star gave me the increased HP and Torque I wanted and increased my MPG. The CAI lost 1MPG or more so its now gone and the stock filter is back on and I am happy.
