Yet another CAI question
Ok I know there are several threads on tune vs. no tune intakes, but while in my "reading room" today I was flipping through the July issue of Mustang Monthly looking the 05/06 performance gude. The Airaid write up caught my attention becuase it said "as is" it doesn't require a retune, but you could remove the Modular Venturi tube and increase gains with a custom tune. So my question is would this be a good option for someone like myself who for now wants to mild increase and in a year or so would like to go the full tuning route. I still haven't made my first payment so I'm not in a rush to retune yet.

A cai and tune produce the biggest gains I get that but that was not my question. With an Airaid intake could I remove the Venturi tube and do a retune later if I decided I wanted to go that route?

I have the AirAid and it works just fine. Added a tune and it really made smooth power. I did the Airaid based on my experience using it with other cars. I also wanted to wait to do the tune after I had other mods made.

The tune part is much easier than the CAI install. Its like plug & play on your computer. The only two aspects that put me off initially were cost and voiding my warranty. Well the money was spent, I can switch my stuff to stock b4 going to the dealer and the rest is sweet bliss history

From the way I read it the tube allows it to use Factory settings, but if you wanted to use a custom tune you would remove it. We are talking about a Venturi tube that probably moderates the air flow to keep it from setting off the MAF, not the main tube.
