OK, I'll soon be getting either a CAI or a Mass Air Kit, but I was looking at them and they look the same to me..why is the Mass Air so much more expensive? And also I looked on my airbox and there are 2 little sensors or something coming out of the airbox that plugs into the inlet tube, and I just figured that the new kit would have these and I would just plug them back into the new one, but the one CAI I found doesn't look like it has these.

Thanks...

Don't waste you money on a new MAF meter or CAI. The CAI is basically cosmetic also...just get a K&N replacement filter and you'll be good. Put the money towards some gears or something.

CAI's have a minimum result on the 2v 4.6. But if you DO get one, get one that is plastic, not metal, for temp reasons.

Everyone here makes fun of MustangRay because he focuses on cosmetics I believe. Silly stuff imo.

Anyway, Ray, don't do intake work until you do full exhaust work (LTs, midpipe, catback). Once that's done THEN do your intake work (CAI/Mass Air, 75mm TB, Plenum). That will free up some ponies!
