Was thinking of getting a CAI for my new truck through Torrie and wanted some more information as to pro's and cons.
I've read a few blogs and very few say when installing it throws cell errors - very rare.
Torrie has sent me information on the AFE Stage 2 CAI and I just don't know enough about these to know if that's good - bad - or what. Does a Stage 2 mean there is/was a Stage 1? The information I've found states that I could get 9HP and 10Ft LB additional. Is this true? Does anyone know what kind of MPG I could get in addition as well?
Additionally, I have a student that builds "ricers" and said that because of the electronics in my Coyote engine, it'll take better advantage of the CAI and other performance items that an typical engine. Have no idea.
I've towed 7,500 pounds once and got 9.5 MPG. Will a CAI increase or decrease this?
Obviously, I know MPG depends on how heavy my foot is - but as I've said in older posts, I usually drive like an old lady - typically.
I've been picking Torrie's brain about other improvements as well and didn't want to keep hounding him so I thought I'd ask you folks.
Completed so far:
Magnaflow dual exhaust
Future improvements:
CAI (Torrie)
Tunner (Torrie)
Topper (Installed Tuesday, 3/1)
Just saving $$ to get it started
Thanks
