CAI with Superchips tunes?
http://www.superchips.com/forum/view...hp?f=11&t=8755
The second post in that link shows the Dyno results with different CAI kits with Superchips' associated tunes. Does anyone have experience with any of these setups? The S&B tune shows the best performance gains but others such as Roush claim gains of 22HP and 32 ft. lbs of torque and do not require tuning. I have an '08 5.4L V8 and am looking for the best performance gains as well as fuel economy. I currently run the Superchips 87 octane tune and am very pleased but would love to add some extra power.

Please read some of the threads in the Exhaust and Intake forum. No intake is going to give you more than 12 to 14 hp gain, even with a custom tune. Don't fall for ad hype. The Superchip numbers seem to be pretty realistic. Your best results for dollars spent is still the Gotts mod with a custom tune.
