CAI and fuel economy

[Tiberius183]

For those with a 3.3 and put in a CAI: was there a notable increase in fuel economy? Or, the opposite?

should be no different. you may gain some responsiveness or slight power but it wont change any mpg deal.

the one thing that would, you leaning into the fuel pedal to hear the turbos

In my experience, when adding a CAI any potential MPG benefits are outweighed by my lead foot. If you are interested in viewing some CAI options you can click HERE to view our available selection on our website. If you have specific questions about an Intake that you like, shoot me a message and I would be glad to help out as best I can.

In the old days, before fuel injection when cars used carburetors, a restrictive air filter made a difference, but now with precisely metered fuel injection, only the correct amount of gas is injected for the volume of air flowing into the engine. A restrictive filter may impact performance, but not economy.
