    Hey all
    Just traded my 2016 TRD sport for a 2020 TRD Pro with low miles. Looking for some advice on air intakes and tunes? Anyone have any pointers?

    Do a search. Plenty on this this subject. Short answer, CAI do nothing. The tundra already has a OEM CAI. As for tunes, I don't know if there is one for the 20-21.

    I had the Toyota "K&N" style filter and airbox because that is how my SC 2015 Tundra came when a bought her. I personally fell off all this HP hype with aftermarket filters years ago and I ran K&N filters in plenty of other cars I had. I never felt any improvement performance wise. What the don't tell you is because the filter is less restrictive it also allow more garbage and shit to enter your engine. There is a Youtube video where someone took the time to test all these filters for pressure drop and filtration capability and I was surprised how poor these aftermarket filters performed as far a filtering particulates. What that does to your engine over time .... who knows? This doesn't account for having to also mess with cleaning and re-oiling the filter which is a PITA. I am running a WIX paper element air filter now because I believe it was one of if not the best paper element filter in those tests. My opinion for what it is worth. Supercharged engine run just as good with it in place.
