What's the best CAI that works with the Midwest 15 style intake?

[T_W6.7]

Thanks for the info guys. I had replied in that thread a few times and that thread is what really got me thinking about the tuning/cai. But, Morgan @ Midwest sent me another tweaked file and this one runs like I was expecting it would with the sm65.5!!! What totally blows me away is how basically everyones tunes smoked and smoked bad. Going 50mph and hitting resume for the cruise to go to 70, it would paint the sky black. This thing doesn't puff a bit. Not sure if Morgan pulled some fuel out of it too, or if having an accurate MAF sensor makes that much of a difference. Trans shifting is spot on and egts are lower as well. Thankfully Morgan kept at it and got this thing running hard. Now its time to start adding fueling mods to it.

Hopefully Mike can keep bugging GH for an updated tune cuz I'd like to see how theirs runs just to compare since I paid for it. But does GH actually live tune trucks or how are they getting the tuning info they need? I only ask cuz with the MAF tuning issues I had, all the files they sent me seemed to make it run worse. Also noticed like on the trans files, I'd get one that had a date from like 2013 or 2014 on it and the engine file would totally change its naming convention to e20. So I knew at that point its like pissing in the wind, basically just getting someone elses tune with my vin/device info entered in to make it work.

glad they got it figured out for you!

Morgan has OCD to make it right.

Fwiw. I left my stock intake on with Sparton and it smoked much less. Bigger intake... big smoke. Sure you might gain a little on top with the intake but who drives with their foot completely floored all the time?

If anyone has left the building for tuning it's Spart-an. I hate that I spent $1200 on a worthless tuner! Lol... hopefully they will come back around soon!

I really think I may try and go visit Cale soon being he lives relatively close to me.

If you had the EPA square up your ass you'd be focusing on staying afloat too. Spartacus is alive and well....

Of course. Anyone that follows then on facebook can get much more truth than what's on here for sure!

Matt made one heck of a post regarding their situation.

They just simply stopped supporting anything for the time being... I DO HOPE that President Trump appoints Rick Perry over DOE!!

They're catching up on individual custom tuning day by day now.

Well that sucks, thats all we need is more regulations.

This!!! I cannot emphasis this enough! ******* has not "left the building". Like stated, they have been in contact with the EPA for over a year now. Up until a few weeks ago they legally weren't even allowed to talk about it with anyone outside of ******* employees. Then Matt made multiple post and announcements to the public. Trust me, they are doing the best they can to get caught up on everyone's issues and requests.
