Hey all! Its been a while just been busy with life and shiz figured id chime in again. I had a S&B filter and it did show some performance gains,gains from any modification always boil down to how restrictive the stock part was .
I dont know of any CAI that requires a tune, however to get the most out of aftermarket intakes and exhausts a tune can drastically help. Reason is the computer settings are formulated around the performance parameters of the stock parts when you put something thats alot less restrictive on either end of the engine the computer should be made aware of it so it will adjust for max efficiency. Its not unusual to have say a 25 hp increase with changing intake and exhaust (depends on the car and the stats of the parts) and then tuning and gaining an additional 25 hp on top of that.
