Just found out my CAI somehow got shipped back to Cali... So it won't be here until the 9th...

 

that blows. seems like when u always want something, it takes forever for it to come

 

I'm just mad that when you spend 400 bux on somehting this happens... I'm a lil p***ed off right now... But I got enuff beer to take care of it.

 

true. i was talkign with suzuki guy about a cai for my truck. and he had 1 on his and he said it didnt help much.. so there goes that idea. next for me is a chip from tbichip lol.

 

My tune has the CAI on it, so I'm thinking it'll help. Plus this one sounds awesome.

 

yep it probably will.

 

Just a quick update bout how the tune is doing. Still don't have a crank relearn. But My fuel mileage has improved from 13.75 to 14.25 city driving... thats excellent to me. I don't think it's out of the realm of possibility for me to hit 15mpg in town, seeing how my revs are lower at speed because of the tires. I just need to keep my foot out of it a lil more.

 

I just got mine done yesterday in Brunswick. Had a great time. Justin is a knowledgeable guy at his trade - no worries there. He spotted an issue from my CAI install particular to the flex fuel engines. Since they don't use an alcohol sensor anymore, they 'interpret' the fuel quality (% of ethanol). Adding the CAI caused it to believe I was running nearly 20% ethanol. This was killing my highway mileage. I could pull 15+ mpg easily in town, but 16.4 was the best I could do on the highway. When I first got the truck I know I was getting 18.
On the way home I was running anywhere from 20-17.8. Can't say for sure since I was trapped on I4 for 45 minutes at 4 mph. All lanes both directions stopped for an accident. The one area your can't get off or turn around...
No matter what, my mileage and performance have improved dramatically!

 

Thats awesoem man...

Wife just called... my CAI intake.... IS IN!!!!! I know what I'm doing tonight when I get off work at 1100pm

 

hey NauticStar, I see that you have a 6-speed auto in your truck and I thought that I read on the Blackbear website that they did not have a tune for the 6-speed tranny that they could send through the mail, that they could do it in person though. Not sure if you've ever seen their site but apparently I either read it wrong or they've just not updated their site I guess. Sounds like you're enjoying your tune, I'm going to contact them about getting one for a 2010 2500hd and see what they say. Thanks for the info on your tune.
