That's an interesting video, but not a very good test. Simply adding a cone filter and calling it a CAI is misleading. CAI are designed to draw in more cooler dense air which does to some extent provide more oxygen than warmer air. Most of them also have tubing that extends the filter all the way to the bottom of the vehicle. For our cars you're going to see the most gains with a tune.

Tuning on FI cars will be the best bang for the buck.

I agree. By puting on a "true cold air intake" and accompanying that with a tune would be the best.

The stock computer is capable of making adjustments for the increase in air. Our stock system isn't really restrictive, so a bigger throttle body is whats going to allow more air through. I would get one more for the increase in engine sound.
