noobish question


yes this may sound kind of noobish but im new to the scene i kno most cold air intakes dont need a tune. do i need to get a tune right away i kno i will see more performance if i do but is it required to have a tune to get it to run. just wondering.

thanks

becuse i was jsut gonna wait till i get all my stuff and get the tuner when i am done.

it will run like crap without a tune. certain intakes don't need one like k&n but i recomend a steeda or a c&l intake with a diablo tuner. i got a c&l racer and diablo from radmustangs.com and i love it.

Wait until you get a cai that requires a tune.. no need to buy twice. intakes that don't require a tune are usually crap in the first place.

i would agree that if you want to go for a tuner, this is the set up you would want
