Well its been awhile since I originally created this thread. Finally decided to go with an AirRaid CF Intake and a AED 93 and Drag tune. Installed the intake and tune a few weeks back but was just too busy to play with the car. Finally had time yesterday afternoon.
Pros:
First I will say that this combination of tune/intake really make power. Especially above 3500-rpms, the car is now breaking the tires free at speeds I hadn't experienced before. Idle and ramp up in rpms is great. Honestly the car feels like it has gained 30+hp from my butt dyno.
Cons:
I have always driven my car with the RedKey. While the car is most likely faster with the new Tune/CAI combo, I miss the characteristics of the RedKey, especially the aggressive idle and lower RPMs response. I wish a tuner was able to keep the RedKey functions yet tune for more power.
Considering:
I am considering adding a BBK 85-mm TB in the hopes of getting some of that very low RPM throttle response back. Has anyone tried this?
