Default Cold air + MAF + TB?

Got a bbk cold air fender mount kit and 73mm MAF and 70mm TB getting ready to install tommorow. Is it better to use the cold air kit, or better to stay with the short ram and just install the MAF and TB?
Thanks,
Evan.

i would use the CAI, it will flow nicer then the stock tube, it will work well with the 2 other mods!

hahah Ok that tube that your factory air box connected to is called the air silencer there is just 2-4 bolts holding it on there drop that AIR restricting POS out of your car and throw it in the garbage, thats no ram air in any way. then run your MAF CAI and throttle body! Remember to always adjust your TPS after messing with the TB and idle screw!

Install the CAI also, it wil be less restrictive than your stock rubber hoses. You'll notice the power increase more w/ your MAF and TB. Let us know what you think when you get it all done....

If you already have the CAI theres no point of NOT installing it....
