Default How much to sell my c&l + unlocked tuner for?

Just curious what to sell my c&l CAI + unlocked tuner for? I purchased it around a year ago when that free tunes for life deal came out. It's in perfect condition along with the xcal sf3/x3 tuner.
Just curious what these sell for and what's a fair price or me to ask? Only reason Im asking is because I plan on getting xcharged and obviously won't need this. I may keep the tuner depending on if I can't find a deal on one with a tuner. What do you guys value them each separately?

I can't take it anymore and need to go faster. Don't get me wrong the CAI is awesome but I want my neck to hurt from beig thrown back in the seat :P

You can get the Xcharger without a tuner and then just buy a tune to be downloaded, or go to your local tuner to dyno tune the car. It might be cheaper for you to hang on to your SCT.

I just bought/installed the X on my car. Keep your tuner, buy the X without the tuner, get a X tune from AM/bama(free tunes). If you buy the X without the tuner, you will need to buy the tune too...$200, but AM/BAMA will give it to you with the free tunes.

Doing it this way saves you a bunch of $$$...order without tuner -$300, free tunes for life Xtune -$200. Total savings of $500, and you will never sell your tuner for that kind of money. Sell the cai seperately.

if it's a CAI that requires a tune, I may want to purchase them from you.

The C&L does require a tune

Does bama do F/I tunes? I thought I read somewhere that they do not do mail in tunes for super/turbo chargers? Might be mistakes though.

They do the tunes for the Xcharger. BAMA was the one that originally wrote the tune for explorer express and will still give it to you. I just got mine from them a month ago.

Yeah, I'd consider keeping the tuner.


But as a combo, ~$250

just don't run this type of "oversized" CAI without the custom tune specific for this CAI. your car will throw codes and function improperly.
