Ya if I had to get a major retune, I would prob have them do the xcal2, just so I get a handheld and can make minor adjustments

You can run a K&N CAI without a tune. I did when I got mine, but when I got the XCAL2 I tuned her right up.

yep went with the K&N because of the reviews stating you dont need a tune. i know ill get my moneys worth if i added a tune but for now the K&N tuneless is just fine

My K&N ran a little RICH after awhile (maybe the computer adjusted).
I know other K&Ns that did this too. I didn't believe it until I checked mine.
It never threw a code, but it wasted gas without a tune.
