CAI and Tune

CAI and Tune
Ok so I finally get to get something for my stang. I deciede on going with the CAI first. I dont know anybody around here with a Dyno so a Dynotune is out of the question but say I want a CAI. Ok so what kind of tuner should I get with it? and I need a CAI that will fit to the factory box cause I am going to get a Ram Air hood and as far as I know the Cervinis Type 4 hoods with the Ram Air line up to the factory boxes and just use a gasket to set down on them atleast that is what I think they do. So any help with what kind of CAI and Tuner to get
Thanks
BW
P.S. I would also like a tuner that keeps my factory setting for future reference.

RE: CAI and Tune
you wont find any CAIs that use the factory air box. if you want a CAI that fits in the factory air box location, I think that most of them do. I am sure that the Steeda and AFE ones will sit in the same location. I cant speak for any of the other ones, because those are the only two that I have had

I got the diablosport predator; its seems to be big in my area and i picked it up at my local shop really cheap. Very easy to use, and it saves the factory settings.
the xcal seems to be a popular choice around here, and vmptuning has a nice package deal for the xcal & intake for 449.
i just wanted to throw on the 93 octane tune & be able to use a CAI, but i think they both will do the job.

Ok so. I guess my question should be how do the Ram Air hoods work, because I want to use a CAI with the hood if possible. I was wondering if you had to have the stock box to get them to work.
The Diablo Sport is the one I was thinking about. My only problem now is how to work them. I a pretty decent I think with electronic stuff. I catch on quick but can anybody give me a quick rundown of how they work? How much I should expect to pay? and Where to get one?

RE: CAI and Tune
the hood should work with any cai if the cai has a heat shield. As far as the Predator I think they run around $350-$400 depending on where you go online. If you can find a performance shop within a reasonable driving distance they might cut you a better deal. To use it just plug it into your obd2 port under and left of the steering wheel and follow the on screen instructions. it's very self explanatory once you plug in.

Ok Thanks guys. So I am assuming the hood just dumps the air out over the air box and nothing else. I thought that they worked like the Shaker Systems on the Mach 1's. I guess I will just go ahead and get the CAI and the tuner as long as I am able to set the stuff back to factory
Thanks for all the help

Ok thanks. There is someone on this site who got the Cervinis Type 4 Hood if I could remeber who it was then I would ask them if it worked very well. But I dont even know if they have the ram air on it or not
