    I own a 2019 SR5 2wd.
    Just upgraded the shocks to the Bilstien 5100 and a TRD rear sway bar and I love the difference… thanks for everyone’s help!
    Now I’m thinking about a cold air intake….
    Do these really do anything? If so one model better than others or the cheap one does the same….??

    Glad you like the suspension. General consensus on this forum is that the tundra comes stock with a "cold air" intake. Iirc, it pulls from the fender well.

    Almost net zero, maybe even a drop in low end rpm hp, but the sound may get "throatier". I cant comment on brand, after reading others input I never looked into it.

    Throatier= exhaust/supercharger not CAI.

    Yeah our OEM is surprisingly the best.

    If you got some coin, a Dirty Deeds @dirtydeeds exhaust will give you some growl and slight performance gains. His research was exhaustive (pun intended) and ton of us in here own / love ours.

    Just do yourself the awesome of the SABM (Stock Air Box Mod) and you'll be breathing better and easier all with looking OEM!

    **You will see the most benefit if you're boosted, but it can ONLY help NA folk!
