RE: CAI
The theory here is that you are sucking in more dirt, debris, dust and even mud into your intake and throttle body when in off-roading conditions. I don't know how much actually get past the higher performance filters usually associated with CAI's, but without a doubt, when used in these conditions you would have to clean and re-oil the filter much more often.
They do, however make a fix for this. I have one and used to put it on before off-roading and take it off after. It barely makes a difference in flow, however and I can't tell the difference with it on, so now I leave it on all the time.
