Default Best CAI WITH Tune? (I know there are lots)

Okay, first of all, I'm sorry to post this- I know there are like 1,000 "what should I get" posts. That said....what should I get? My car has dual exhaust already, but I plan on getting an XCAL tuner and an underdrive pulley. With these mods, and with a tune, what CAI will do the most good? I was thinking about AFE, but I'm not sure. Thanks for the help!

if your getting a tune for sure (custom tune preferebly), get a CAI with a larger than stock MAF housing (where the MAF sensor goes). i believe stock is something like 2.75" diameter so a 3" should help you get the most out of your tune. this question does get beat a lot so if you need anymore info, do a search or PM someone.

they are all pretty much the same to be honest. i liked the look of the steeda intake so i went with that. re-uses the stock intake tubing as well.

Most people go with the TI, JLT, or C&L.
