    Hi
    A newbie asking questions , I want to add a CAI pretty soon,
    Maybe a ECU map device at some point if worth it.
    Have a brand new setup for exhaust, 3 inch dual exhaust install less then a week ago.
    Sounds great :) BTW
    Performance is noticeability better although not sure about mpg yet,
    not a enough data.
    Was wondering about the best CAI for a 2005 4.7,pros & cons?

    Tried to search on CAI and chipping but getting a lot of for sale ads.
    Hard to sift through it.
    Do u really get that much of a hp increase, will it save $$ on fuel etc,etc.
    Should I go for some sort of chip manipulation at some point as well?
    The cpu info seems to be 50/50 for positive and negative.

    So is K&N the sh1t or are there a few others to consider?
    Any advice and direction are greatly appreciated.

    2005 Crew cab sr5 trd 4.7 4X4.
