Do a search, you will find a ton of threads asking the same thing. Also check out the FAQ section.

Most people here make their own CAI with PVC pipe. I have a vararam hemi under glass intake and I am very happy with it.

Programmer is split pretty evenly between Diablosport and Superchips. I personally like Diablo because you can get custom tuning.

okay well im trying to find the name of an intake that i found on here a long time ago, its an intake that almost looks like the mid pipe on a two stroke dirt bike, its fatter and gets skinnier at another point. Also, how are the edge chips? i liked the dash pod design just dont know how high the actual quality is.

The CAI you are thinking of is the BFI. I think it used to be called a ramhammer or something like that as well. I have heard good things about them performance wise, but not as a company. I think it is about impossible to buy a new one, but if you can find one used you are ok.

I have not heard much about edge for the hemi. I know they are respected in the deisel community, but I think you would see better results from either a Diablo or Superchips.

Sameless plug.....I have a Diablo Sport predator that I am selling https://dodgeforum.com/forum/parts-s...n-up-sale.html

Is the diablo trinity worth the extra money? and i found new bfi intakes at http://airflowinnovationscorp.com/intakes/bfi.html they offer alot of nifty options on color combos and such, and they sell the trinity for 499 on their site.

If you look at the web site you put up it says due to demand orders may take up to 60 days for delivery.

I have heard of it taking much longer.

As far as which is better the vararam or bfi, both have their followings. I have never used the bfi, but I have a vararam and I like it. I will say that if you plan on offroading, I would not get the vararam.

The trinity is why I am selling my predator
