CAI Debate.
Debating on which CAI to Purchase, Ive heard positives and negatives about all of them, and read MANY MANY Forum pages on this debate.
Steeda - Best looking, Claims to have the best power gains, No Issues with Water leakage. Most expensive
Airaid - Bland Looking, Near same power gains as Steeda/JLT, Water leak issue, Fixed by a HORRID Looking guard over the whole filter (Possibly restricting some airflow), Second most expensive
JLT - Average looking, Same power as above two. No Issues as to date.
Cheapest
Here is a graph provided by Steeda (Not sure if any results are squed)
As I look at the Results, I'd lean towards the Airaid, 403hp/383 TQ is the middle of the pack, more HP than JLT, Less Torque, More Torque than Steeda, and nearly the same HP. If going on Looks alone, Steeda wins, But thats not what I'm interested in, I'm interested in performance like the rest of us, Of the owners out there, who votes for what?

They are the same. HP numbers are within 1% of each other, Torque numbers are ~1.5% different. I bet the error on the dyno and computer is greater than that. Buy the one that looks best if you are doing a show car. Otherwise, buy the cheapest.

On a 2013 + on the dyno we typically see 9 to 12 horsepower over the stock airbox, mostly above 4,000rpm. A drop in filter is not going to give you any real measureable horsepower.
