CAI questions

Anyone got some solid advice on which intake I should go with? I know rot fab is good and so is Cold air inductions, but what about the KN blackhawk? Idk it seems there's so many claims and stuff but does anyone have some solid independent dyno results? I dont wanna drop 400 bucks on something that might not even produce gains.

Thing is that most of the tests and stuff were done with some caliber of additional mods. I want to know baseline, bone stock with JUST intake, what I can expect.

Save your $400. The stock air box is so well designed you will only gain almost nothing with aftermarket.

If your only mod is going to be an intake, save your money. Only once you start adding more mods together is it worth it. You answer is in the thread below. Super easy search.

Do an intake if you like buying stuff or want a nicer look, that said, I can feel a bit of a low end perf diff.......

OP, not much in the way of gains unless you slap on a supercharger. Otherwise it looks and sounds cool and you can get rid of the awful sound tube.

Bang for the buck? MSD intake, E85 tune.

To my knowledge, Roto-fab offers the only CAI that has dyno gains verified by a 3rd party. You will see on this forum that other CAI manufacturers have not shared any 3rd party dyno numbers.

Roto-fab will continue to offer a very high quality system, which has performed at a level that remains unmatched.

Thank you for your interest, and please let me know if you would like to discuss further.

Michael

P.S. I don't give the typical salesman pitch, only facts. I'm just the fabricator for Roto-fab, and I have a sincere dedication to our product and our customers!

Sorry guys, we don't do alot of advertising so we have to compete by sharing the truth on this forum. I will take your thoughts into consideration.

Sorry again for the annoyance,
Michael

However, it may be helpful sometimes to receive technical support on a product at 11:05 PM Mountain Time!

Thanks for your understanding, and have a great evening guys.
