Default Airaid Intake....FINALLY!

After 50K, almost three years with this Dakota, a move from NJ back to SoCal (that occured 2 years ago) and finally being able to find the time to start modding again, I got my Airaid Intake. It not a big deal, but wanted to share...

Congrats man. The new CAI looks great and those filters are my favorite. I have an airaid filter on the supercharger.

Looks awesome!! I agree with WTEBOY, no mod to small! How's the performance? Any change in MPG? I'm looking to add one within the next few months.

hooah good stuff! and honestly go with Injen or AEM BRUTE FORCE...reason being as most intakes change sizes going from smaller to bigger kinda restricting a little bit with the Injen like the one i got if you look on my pictures through my profile...they made it to where the tubing is the same size the whole way so its not restrictive! just a thought! but get it and you'll notice a MPG increase and deffinately more power! but it also makes the engine sound louder but in a good way and you loose MPG cause you'll just wanna hear the sound over and over and over! lol

Thanks!

This isn't the first "mod", but the first in over a year and first one in a year and half that was performance related. And actually the first one I was really jacked about in a while.

This is my list...

Airaid CAI
Bosch Ir Fusion SPs
Flowmaster Super 40 Series
Tuxedo TruXport Tonneau
BedRug bedliner
EGR Window Shades
E&G Classics Stainless Mesh Grill
Raptor Stainless Step Bars
Bully Firestick Tail Light Bar
Pilot Navigator Fog Lights
