That's OK, but you might want to make a decision about your future mods. I mean, you can get by with a c.a.i. that doesn't require a tune, you might pick up a little bit, but later, if you get a tuner, you will be somewhat handicapped by a more restrictive c.a.i.. Something to think about.

well without a tune ur only going to be looking at a 3 to 6 hp gain. but with a tune, u'll be looking at about 12 to 15 hp gain.

dude you can tune your ecu with any intake....the aem is no accepetion. The difference between the mrt/aem/k&n and say TI and C&L is that the ti and cl havelarger maf-s housings, which are less restrictive, but means you can't run the stock tune. They will show better gains than mrt/aem with a tune. ive decided to not get any intake because i am going to be going f/i this sumemr so it would just be a waste of money, but if i were you i would just save up for ti/xcal combo or something. you can get the combo from ti for like 479.

Hi Guys,
I am looking at a S&B CAI from Blue Oval Industries, they say S&B manufacture most of the OEM for Ford, it also does not require a tune right away. Anyone have any input on these, They Cost around $200, I am thinking about that and a throtle spacer, and also a MAC axleback muffler for my 1st Mods.

Hope to have some nice pics soon
