Need Your Opinion on BBK CAI Please
I wanted to know what you guys think of the BBK Cold Air Intake offered at AmericanMuscle.com
Short on money right now but I want a CAI. This one doesn't need a tuner, even though I really want a tune
Is it a waste of money?
Or is it worth it?
Thank you for your opinions.

It's not a waste of money because that will be one less thing you'll have to get. Your car (may) run lean without the tuner, but that maybe ok for a little while. On the long term effects, it may hurt your car.

RE: Need Your Opinion on BBK CAI Please
I was in the same boat as you. i decided to buy the MRTCAI and i am very happy with it. Its loud and you can notice the small performance difference. its not as big of a diff as if you were to have a tune with it, butfrom what the guys at mrt said. when they dyno'd the new intake it gave them 13 hp. thats not bad at all for a simple bolt on that doesnt require a tune. once i tune it ( within the month hopefully) it should put out about 20- 24. The mrt one is a bit more expensive then the bbk. it runs about 318 for the intake and 38 for the k&n air filter. so about 378 with tax and all but i definatly recomend it. you cant really go wrong with them. The company specializes in mustangs lol. let me know how the bbk works out if u get it tho. if u want to see a pic of the MRT look at my post about it. intake looks nice as hell but my engine bay was pretty dirty from the winter lol. now its clean.
