    I think there all about the same as we have a mixture in our group that have B WOODY, GSM, MOPAR, VOLTANT and we all dyno about the same with mods of cai, preditor, 180 stat and cmr tune and some have cat back exhaust.

    I say save the money and mod the Mopar intake like I did. the Mopar intake is a full 4inch intake.

    I am going to try the RDP Motorsports CAI. If I like it half as much as the tune, I will trash the Mopar CAI.

    Maybe not... there could be more than just flow involved and where it gets if from. I went from the Mopar CAI to an AFE Stage II. Mainly 'cause with the Mopar my IAT ran about 9* over my AAT. Seems the AFE is worse or I have a bad IAT sensor. Lately with temps around 90 or above my IAT is running a good 20* above my AAT... this has got to be pulling more timing. Both CAIs are basically the same in physical location so materials might matter. ...but I'd rather not discuss it. :grin:

    If a CAI is the only mod they will all be about the same for daily driving. I have stuck with my Volant thru many mods but the main decision was to be able to hide my N20 in the box and there are better mods to spend another $300 on...
