Best CAI & Tune?

[beefcake]

Thanks guys.

I'm thinking about putting on a blower instead, but in the end if I can get over 400rwhp with a CAI I'll be happy.

blowers we can def do.



your lund tune can be upgraded to a remote tune later on as well for a power adder

Once you place the order we will email you this link to our custom tune request form.

http://www.lethalperformance.com/tune-request-form

You'll fill out the form with all of the info about your vehicle and it's mods. From that info the tune is built.

Please let me know if you have any other questions.

Thanks, Jared

Yep I have more actually. After looking through the tune form you kindly provided I noticed that there isn't a selection for 92 octane?
Do you (or someone) actually have a tune developed for 92 octane?
I would hope a 91 tune isn't used?
Thanks

lund can do tunes for any octane, plus you have built in wide bands that will accommodate better or worse fuels and add / pull timing.

let me know if we can help in any way

You can request the tune to be made for any octane that you'd like in the comment section and the tune will be build specifically for that octane rating.

Let me know if you have any other questions and I'll be glad to assist you.

Thanks, Jared

Why does lund charge $100 more for an E85 tune?

Why does lund charge $100 more for an E85 tune?

The E85 tunes cost more as they are considered premium tunes and require more work to build as well as more time involved in datalog review.

Hope that helps.

How do you guys feel about the Steeda cai & tune?

Hello,

I know the OP asked about other units & there are a lot of vendors involved ... but since you mentioned it, our unit has been very well received on the market. Here are some reviews from the website:

GREAT CAI
Install complete and I can tell a nice difference even with the restrictor in. Thanks, David. Great CAI.

ED

WOW YOU WANT POWER WITH THIS CAI BY STEEDA YOU WILL GET IT EASY INSTALL GREAT PERFORMANCE BEST BANG FOR YOUR BUCK
GETTING 3-4 MPG BETTER MILEAGE

The CAI was easy to install and sounds great. Combined with the tune, the car pulls much harder in the mid to upper rev range. I have had no negative side affects. I am also getting 3-4 mpg better mileage as well. I am loving it!

Next up for me will be a set of Steeda springs and sway bars.


ALFONSO AYALA

It is a masterpiece!

Have had the luxury of getting my hands on this nice intake, along with the Steeda tunes, as soon as it arrived, gotta say its the best there is hands down. I waited months for this intake to arrive.

and it sounds amazing, GAINED HELLA GRUNT!! I can pretty much haul up grades with ease. Definitely a massive difference from stock. Install does take a little effort, but with anything good comes some work.
POWER GAINS ARE SURPRISING
I installed with restrictor, I'm still waiting on my tune via email. The power gains are surprising for just a CAI more power and torque and the car just seems louder. I can wait to see how she responds with the tune it going to be nuts! Install wasn't too bad and it looks great under the hood especially with the stickers
VERY PLEASED


Installed my intake (with restrictor) this afternoon. It was not difficult at all. I also bought the SCT-x4 and loaded the tune from SCT. I loaded the stock configuration as I had not installed the intake yet. Steeda says it will take a week or two to get their tune emailed to me.

I had an x-pipe and magnaflows installed previously. I left the sound tube for the moment.

I am very impressed with the intake and the SCT tune. My car sounds great and pulls much harder. The middle to the top of the rev range most notably. I only did a couple of short rides but am very pleased. I will put it through its paces in the morning on my 55 mile commute. I will also change the tune to the CAI config. and see if that makes any noticeable change.


STEEDA CAI AND TUNE REVIEW
Cold Air Intake:
First thing first, this set was huge! When the box arrived I thought it was something my wife might have ordered or something
When i opened it i was happily surprised by what all was in there as i was expecting just the cone and pipe. The filter included is HUGE like practical joke big and it has the end cap on it has more filter material allowing for even more airflow. I had a similar set up on my old 350Z and i loved the sound from it. The tubing is substantially thick plastic that seemed pretty clean on the seams and all the holes were clear of plastic and were properly sized. Another feature that I hadn't expected was the aluminum velocity stack's build quality. I was honestly expecting either plastic wrapped in a beer can or just a beer can.. When i saw the stack i was very impressed as the welds and measurements were flawless. Even the restrictor that came with it fit like a glove. Putting all these together makes for a nice package with a very high end feel, a clean look and a feeling of confidence in my purchase.

After the install I fired it up and immediately fell in love with the sound. It lines up with the "scoop" in the hood so with the window down and the sound tube in place the sound under load is incredible. Throttle response was snappier and power felt around the same. MPG dropped but thats cause i couldn't stay out of it! otherwise it seemed like about a 1 MPG gain on the hwy.

Tuner:
The SCT X4 seems like a pretty decent tuner, i ran a diablosport intune on my old challenger and i'd say the load time is comparable but the SCT seems more responsive. Tune went on without an issue although when it tunes the car unlike the dodge that just sits in acc mode, the mustang cuts out all the lights in the car thus ensuring my crimping of my seat fabric thinking i just bricked my car... after i took a breath and came to peace with the idea of listening to my wife's "i told you so's" for the next year it came back to life. When i loaded up the tune it worked and worked well. I felt a noticeable difference in the power delivery and the smoothness of acceleration. Felt like butter, really fast butter. Torque down low felt much more available and it pulls harder. Not sure on the numbers as i live an hour from a dyno and i'm not only broke but lazy as well for that sort of stuff..

Steeda:
I've never messed with this company before as I was previously an import or Mopar man. That being said every single experience i've had with these guys has been an absolute pleasure. They were not only quick to handle issues reported on this site but also through email and reached out to call and put me in touch with the tuner during later hours. They quickly answered all my questions and concerns and have effectively won me over as a true supporter. I'm actually going to put their sticker on the car.. who knows how much HP that will add but its going to be a first for me as stickers usually hit the toolbox.

All three cars JLT and HPTuners tune by Rick Erdman at Amazon Tuning Solutions
There is a reason why we only ever offer the JLT line of products.

Do you guys have tunes for the CAI without the restrictor.

 

[Obsol3te]

From what I've been reading the CAI's out there arn't really worth much man. On a DynoJet in about 90º+ weather, my car made 403whp/360wtq with just an out of the box SCT "Strategy" tune. This is just me, but I don't plan on buying a "cai" anytime soon. I'm going to work on freeing up the exhaust end of things first. The exhaust is pretty restrictive and seems to net really good gains(header swap)

We sure do.

You should look at a dyno of a car with just a tune, and a JLT w/tune.

 

[Obsol3te]

I've seen them online on various vendors websites. But nothing from someone who just owns the car and has actual evidence that the CAI made more power over the stock airbox. If someone has a video you're aware of that's not associated with a vendor that has before and after dyno's on the same day, then i'm all ears.
