After all this I'm having a procharger installed this week and will not even be using it anymore! Or my sct wireless tuner!

I just installed my Roush CAI today. Although I only drove it to work, I noticed a difference in sound, power, and mileage (.3 so far). I have a hill that it used to drop 2 gears to go up ( with cruise on) and if only dropped 1 gear. I can't afford a tune right now, but I hope it doesn't affect it too much.

Once you decide to get a tuner with custom tunes, you will notice a drastic change in performance. I drove around with my stand alone CAI for several months, before I could afford to get a tuner with custom tunes. Once I uploaded the custom tune, the car was like night in day in comparison! I highly recommend getting a custom tune!
