CAI

[cooper09250]

Hello All
Just joined this forum but this is my 4 PSD and member on org. Quick question what CAI is the best and is it of any benefit?
My 6.4 had an AFe
Thx
Dave

Best???

S&B for me.

S&B with the paper element is the best for balance of fit and function IMO. the AFE is very nice also, just a little more cumbersome during install. the main thing to factor is if you are still running with the DPF intact is to use a paper element to help prevent excessive regenerations

Sorry about the lack of info....2012.... I'm tuned and deleted... Egr blocked

In that case you might want to bug bigrpowr about his system! We are all eagerly awaiting!

yeah , its juts silcon design takes a while. once drawing is finalized, which isnt easy, then you have one prototype made, then approve and go into production. wish i woulda started sooner, cuz i want one for myself.

that's ok I'll wait til next week for mine!! LOL just giving you a hard time but I'm sure it will be worth the wait. hopefully people do not go for instant gratification and hold out for this kit!

Has anyone here removed the air box reservoir muffler thing from the stock intake tube or know how to do it?

I have the aFe 51-11872. I love it. Felt some more power and you can here the turbo now.

whats the air flow of the stock box and filter and the flow of the paper s&b? im new to the egr/dpf/def crap so forgive me, but what does it have to do with the regeneration?

any type of contaminates will load the filter prematurely, including oil residue and dust

are you talking about cleaning the air filter itself or making the motor regen? and do you know the cfm flow of the stock filter?

foreign materials will load the dpf prematurely and I do not know the actual cfm flow numbers on the OE filter. I will try to research it for you

no need to. the OEM filter fows VERY well. i dont think there are much, if any power gains or EGT drop with the currently available kits. just my opinion.

mike knows what he is talking about, hold out for his kit! I do not personally own a 6.7 but when his kit comes available I WILL buy his system.

only testing will tell. but the filter i plan to use will be twice the size of whats currently available, so theoretically it should cool and breath better. everything i said was my own opinion and NOT fact.
