With a tune ... you can expect to see around 10-13 HP increase.

Let me know if I can get you hooked up with a tuner and tunes for life?

Best Regards,

TJ

I suggest getting rid of the throttle body. Not sure they really help much.
What cai and tune do you have?

Definitely get a tune. It'll enhance other mods.

210 at the wheels? Don't forget the stock hp isn't measured at the wheels...

This. Throttle body was a waste of money.

I have an Airaid CAI and was tuned with a DiabloSport SCT.

Well there's your problem...

Diablosport and SCT are 2 competing brands. And you'd be better off buying a tune from AM, Steeda, etc., instead of using the tunes that come with the tuning device.

I would suggest Steeda ... not only because I am a representative ... but check out the numbers:

Steeda's new Cold Air Kit for the S197 produces the greatest power gains of any Cold Air Kit on the market. Testing has shown increases of up to 38 HP and 30 ft lbs of Torque to the rear wheels with Steeda's Cold Air Kit combined with our Custom SCT Tune.

Also
"SCT has seen the highest horsepower and torque results while using Steeda's Cold Air Kit, over any other brand." - Chris Johnson, President of SCT Tuning
You can check it out here: http://www.steeda.com/store/steeda-2...ir-intake.html

And we just started offering tunes for life. You start to do other mods after the CAI and tune then we will update the tune for free.

Send me an email at tim@steeda.com if I can provide any other information or support?

Best Regards,

TJ
