So heres the deal. I have a 2015 v6 Mustang and I'm looking in getting a cold air intake. I was looking at the airaid CAI but then I noticed that roush came out with one. The roush one states a 10hp increase and like 9.8tq while the airaid doesn't state exact hp numbers but says there is an increase. Now cj pony parts states that with a tune, the airaid will "maximize the benefits of aftermarket tuning" but they don't state that for the roush. I plan on getting a tune, but later on. Not anytime soon. The roush one is cheaper so that's why I got interested in that one.

Which one do you guys think I should get. Airaid or Roush?

Airaid - Airaid 451-327 Mustang Cold Air Intake SynthaMax V6 2015-2016

Roush - Roush 421828 Mustang Cold Air Intake V6 2015 | CJ Pony Parts

Thanks in advance!

They make new pistons every day, so why worry?

At the end of the day you are splitting hairs in my opinion. The way to decide for me is to find the most astatically appealing part and pull the trigger. Understand that most advertised increases are super best case scenario and are not likely easily repeatable. Either choice that you listed will yield very similar results imho, marketing is going to be the biggest difference in the two products.
