I am weighing my options on buying either a CAI or a K&N drop-in filter. A CAI does look better, but from what I've read they don't seem to provide any real performance upgrades over the drop-in. Some people have even reported getting more power and/or better ETs with a drop-in.
I don't plan on doing any major performance adders such as boost or cam/heads for a while, strictly bolt-ons for now. I just purchased a Borla cat-back and plan on sticking with the stock manifolds until one of the aforementioned performance upgrades can be installed.
All that being said will the CAI, catback, 91/93 octane tunes offered on the Trinity tuners and/or a dyno tune work just as well with a drop-in? If so then wouldn't it make more sense to go the cheaper route with a drop-in?
PS - I created this thread because I did not find any others dedicated to drop-in filters, only CAI's. Feel free to leave a link if I missed one. Thanks
