    Differences In CAI

    All CAI's will supply more then enough air that can be used by a N/A engine. The engine can only intake a finite amount. You will want to get a custom tune to go with the CAI, that is what makes a huge difference. I put a BBK CAI with a Brenspeed 92 oct. tune in my wife's 09 V6...really brought...
