stock intake

[dirtwarrior]

I just put in a dry flow filter and like the results. My question are there any restriction in the stock air box or tube?

Most likely not a great deal, but for optimum. Would be to install an after market CAI. Even better include the soft tune for max efficency

I'm guessing you dropped in a K&N, that always gives more from the loud peddle .

The stock airbox is engineered well, so there's little restriction to airflow. There's always room for improvement but most CAI's are a waste of $$$ unless you get one with a tune, and even then it's a marginal improvement.

Unless you have a spare $300+ for the Air Raid CAI the answer is ”not enough to worry about”.

Those are junk, worse than the stock box, at least it is sealed .

And absolutely qualifies as a wast of cash ,

Yeah just wondering if the stock box can be improved cheaply

Even then, op would have to be at WOT all the time to realize any gains. Those things are a waste of money IMHO for the average driver.

No. There are no modifications known for the stock box on a 3.7. The filter is all the improvement you are going to get with a stock tune.

I think most people do CAI's for appearances as they do look much better than the stock boxes.

I do it for the woosh sounds.

Yup ............... That's what they are. Noise makers and allow more garbage to be ingested.

I love the ignorance posted when facts get in the way of an argument, that is actually is suppose to be a discussion. Intended to educate, & inform.

As the naysayers begin to loose the high ground, cheap being the only weapon . Ultimately ends up being a pissing contest by fools.

Good luck with that, a strategy for a looser to failure.

Huh? It has been proven that the gains if any are minimal at best. They are more about wow factor at cars n coffee. Some such as the JLT require a tune. No thank you. Either go all in with a tune, headers, etc or, leave it alone. YMMV

The tube which replaces the flex tubing are any benefit?

No. Nothing involving the CAI is going to make a difference. Maybe move on to another part of your car.
