  • Performance Cold Air Intake for 2008 Ford F-250 Super Duty XLT Triton V10
  • When it comes to a cold air intake system for your 2008 Ford F-250 Super Duty XLT Triton V10, I have two options for you, Airaid CAD Cold Air Intake System with SynthaFlow Oiled Filter, # AR400-226, and Airaid CAD Cold Air Intake System with SynthaMax Dry Filter, # AR401-226.

  • Cold Air Intake Recommendation for a 2008 Honda Ridgeline
  • If you drive your 2008 Honda Ridgeline mostly on paved roads, I would recommend going with the Airaid Cold Air Intake System with Oil-Based Filter, # AR530-202. With the oil-type filter, it is recommended to clean and re-oil every 25,000 to 30,000 miles. Oiled filters allow for the greatest amount of airflow. If you drive on paved and semi-dusty roads, then I recommend going with the Airaid Cold Air Intake System with Dry Filter, # AR531-202. The dry filter has the same maintenance schedule...

  • Recommended Cold Air Intake For 2017 GMC Sierra 1500
  • The Airaid Jr. Upgrade Kit for Factory Cold Air Intake - SynthaMax Dry Filter, # AR201-711, is not a direct fit for your 2017 GMC Sierra 1500 with 6.2 L V8. It has provisions for one crank case breather on one of the valve covers and not 2 like you see on the 2017 model, one on each side. However, if you add another breather tube, you can make this system work. This will upgrade your factory intake while maintaining the air box and location but replacing the intake tube and air filter....

  • Comparing a Oiled or Dry Cold Air Intake for 2007 Toyota FJ Cruiser
  • That will depend on the roads you travel. Oil filters are a tighter filter and a great option if you will see a lot of dusty or gravel roads. The oil just does a better job filtering off the dust than a dry filter. If you primarily are on dust-less streets a dry filter will work well and since it's easier to clean and way less messy it's the best option then. So for an oiled cold air intake the Airair part # AR510-301 that you referenced is a great option confirmed to fit. For the same...

  • Throttle Body Spacer and Cold Air Intake Recommendation for a 2016 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited
  • The Airaid PowerAid Throttle Body Spacer part # AR300-637 has been confirmed as a fit for your 2016 Jeep Wangler. I would recommend the Airaid MXP Cold Air Intake System with SynthaMax Dry Filter # AR312-132 which has been confirmed as a fit for your vehicle as it has a dry filter which will be easier to clean. If you plan to go off-road a lot and would see a lot of dust an oil-based filter would be a better option though. For that you would need the part # AR310-132.

  • Cold Air Intake with Oiled or Dry Filter for 1998 5.2 V8 Dodge Durango
  • Which system is better will really depend on you. If you're a 'Type A' person who's pretty much on top of things all the time, I'd recommend the Oil-Based Filter model, part # AR300-107 because the 5-layer filter provides better filtration than the # AR301-107 dry filter model, especially if you regularly operate your vehicle in dusty areas. This system does require some maintenance, it will need to be cleaned and re-oiled occasionally. A cleaning and oiling kit is available as part #...

  • Programmer and Cold Air Intake Recommendation for 2018 GMC Sierra 1500 5.3 liter V8
  • A programmer like the Edge CTS2 part # EP85450 will be exactly what you want for your 2018 GMC Sierra 1500 with a 5.3-liter engine. This programmer can give you up to 18 horsepower and 27 ft lbs of torque. Another great option would be to also add a cold air intake like the Edge Jammer Cold Air Intake with Dry Air Filter # EP284141-D which is also a confirmed fit for your truck. By allowing the engine to basically inhale easier your power is increased.

  • Is It Worth It To Buy A Tuner To Improve Towing Ability Or Should I Change The Gear Ratio?
  • Adding a tuner is usually not going to improve your towing ability as much as changing the gear ratio or upgrading the transmission. That said, the Superchips Flashpaq F5 Performance Tuner - GM # SU2845 that you were looking at does have a tow mode which allows you to adjust the shift points for more efficient towing which would certainly come in handy. This tuner adds horsepower and torque which will aid in towing/pulling, but I think you would also benefit from adding a cold air intake...

  • Picking Between Oiled and Dry Filter Cold Air Intakes for 2004 Ford F-150 5.4 liter
  • When picking between an oiled or dry filter cold air intake system it really comes down to the roads you'll be travelling on. If you know you'll be on gravel or dirt roads you really need an oiled kit. If you don't think you'll ever be on either of those types of road a dry filter is more than adequate and since they are much easier and less messy to clean they are the way to go. The oiled kit part # AR400-140-2 is a fit for your 2004 Ford F-150 with a 5.4 liter engine and for a dry filter...

  • Recommended Performance Kit And Backup Camera For 2016 Ford F-450 Cab And Chassis
  • For your 2016 Ford F-450 Cab and Chassis, the Edge Stage 1 Performance Kit w/ Diesel Evolution CS2 Programmer and Jammer Air Intake, # EP19003, you asked about has 3 settings to increase horsepower and torque. Setting 1 will give you an additional 39 hp and 73 lbs torque to your factory settings. Setting 2 will give you 73 hp and 153 lbs torque. Setting 3 will give you 109 hp and 234 lbs torque. This system is not legal in California. For a dash board mounted backup camera system,...

  • Recommended Performance Tuner and Cold Air Intake for 2004 Ford F-350 with 6.8L Engine
  • To get the power and tuning ability, you will need to use a performance tuner and not just a monitor. I recommend the Superchips Flashpaq F5 Performance Tuner - Ford - Gas/Diesel # SU1845 for your 2004 Ford F-350 6.8L. This turner will plug right into your OBD-II Port under your dash and give you active fuel management control. This setting will not give you more power or torque, however this tuner can give you up to 25 more HP and up to 49 ft lbs of additional torque. The Edge EvoHT2...

  • Choosing Programmer or Gauge Monitor with Cold Air Intake on 2010 Dodge Ram 2500 Diesel
  • A cold air intake is a passive system, and wouldn't really be dependent on any input from a programmer. Either the Insight or the Evolution would work well with the Edge Jammer CAI. You'll get modest HP gains by adding the CAI, but the Evolution # EP85301 (approved for use in CA) can provide an increase of up to 95 Horsepower which will provide a noticeable increase in power and efficiency.. The fundamental answer to your question will really depend on your desired outcome. If you decide...

  • Mounting Location Recommendation for Air Lift Compressor and Air Tank on a 2011 Silverado 2500 HD
  • For mounting the Air Lift Quick Shot compressor System on your 2011 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 4WD that has a Short Bed my recommendations would be to mount it directly to the vehicle frame. While keeping in mind that you will want to make sure that both the compressor, air tank, and lines are kept away from any hot elements (like the exhaust) and away from any moving parts. The instructions for this kit do indicate some specifics in regards to mounting the compressor, and that is should...

  • How Much Power Does Edge Programmer Give 2017 Chevy Silverado with 4.3 Liter V6
  • The Edge EvoHT2 programmer part # EP26040 that you referenced will give you up to an additional 20 horsepower and 24 ft lbs of torque. It also will help give you a couple extra miles per gallon as well so I'd say it's worth it. To maximize the power gains a cold air intake would be great but we don't have one for your truck's engine size. An air filter like the part # AR851-135 though will help allow the engine to breathe a little easier and would increase power. I attached a link to a...

  • Best Towing Enhancements for a 2013 Ford F-150 with 5.0L V8 Engine
  • If you are looking for performance enhancements, I recommend using the Edge EvoHT2 Hand-Held Performance Tuner part # EP16040. This tuner can provide you with a boost in horsepower up to 24 HP and torque up to 24 TQ. The towing tune built into the device will adjust shift points for prolonged transmission life and maximize fuel pressure for increase fuel economy. If you are looking for suspension enhancements, I recommend taking a look at the SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs part...

  • What Kind of Increase in Gas Mileage Would a Cold Air Intake, Exhaust System and Flashpaq Give Me?
  • It's impossible to give you a 100% accurate answer on this because there are so many different factors that gas mileage is affected by and when you pair them all together it isn't just as simple as adding the expected gains together. It should also be noted that over time, your vehicle's fuel efficiency goes down so the numbers I'm going to give you are based off the EPA estimates on a similar truck that is fresh off the lot. Now, I'm going to try to put on my math hat and give you a general...

  • Cold Air Intake Recommendation for a 2015 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited
  • Sounds like you are wondering if one of those electric superchargers can be installed in the intake tube of a AirAid MXP Cold Air kit part # AR310-132 for your 2015 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited. To be perfectly honest, don't waste your money on an electric supercharger/intake propeller. They don't work and are just a gimmick. They just don't flow enough CFM to make a difference. At wide open throttle they actually reduce air flow since they can't keep up. They basically end up in the way. A...
