USAF in Germany

I finally took delivery of my mustang last week, and already have 500 miles on it. What a hoot!

Heres my question: If I choose to purchase a tuner with a CAI, what can I expect in terms of HP gains, or rather, how much HP am I giving up by not buying a CAI? From what I have read here, it seems the factory CAI is pretty decent. I have purchased Steeda underdrive pulleys already, and will install them along with a new 93 octane tune. I hope to pick up 25-30 hp.

TIA

The '10 already has a more aggressive tune than the 05-09s but a tune from one of the better tuners should gain you about 12-15 RWHP; perhaps a tad more over stock. Add a good CAI to that and you can probably add another 3-5 RWHP.

Most 10's i've seen that have CAI and tune dyno around 300whp so around 20-25whp
