.Like the title says I know most CAIs require a custom tune. I have the ford racing tune to keep my warranty intact, so which CAI should I use? One that requires no tune? or will my ford tune support a tune required CAI? Need suggestions from some of the CAI companies.

Your car came with a CAI from the factory and will out perform all the others out there. Save your money.

I disagree, there are multiple threads showing dyno results of CAI w/o a tune providing results that out preform the stock.

* I would also love to see a more substance based response, as I tune and planing on doing the say thing and will run into the same predicament.

I agree Warrio I was hoping some of the folks from JLT, C&L, Airaid, Steeda ETC, would add their input.

Show me. And I don't mean results from the company's pushing their product.

I dont know if my 13 is different than you 11 but this article shows a nice gain, on an otherwise stock motor w no tune..

On a dyno with the hood open is not good enough. Plus a magazine article that's probably sponsored by airaid is very deceiving.

Im just here asking questions im not going to argue something i dont know, again is my 13 s air box different than the one on your 11?

Logic says a larger diameter intake, thus allowing more air= a larger combustion that will result in better performance. Again, think of the automotive industry in a whole. It's ludicrous to say an upgraded/ larger intake won't produce more performance, regardless of the vehicle. It's a proven fact it does. I agree with gs462, I too am looking for logical and substance based responses, not an argument with you. I COULD turn your question around and say prove to me where upgraded intakes don't make improvements to the performance of your vehicle; but I know that's not practical or anything to benefit this discussion. So thanks for your input and time.
