My CAI cost less than $70. Came with a dry filter, swapped on a K&N.

As far as Mass Air Maintinance, a can of cleaner and a screw driver isn't costly at all.

If I tune burns up a motor, it's got to be a canned tune, or improper octain of gas.

But by all means, if you don't want a 7.3L, a 6.0L, 5.4L or 6.8L go ahead and swap in something different.

I pull my camper and ATVs without any issues, whole combo is about 23,000 pounds. Runs down the hwy how ever fast you want to go.

Mehhh the MAF cleaner is just a crutch.

I was just lookin for hard mods for the 6.8. Lunati makes a cam for the 8 cyl mod motors, Im just wondering how long until theres a 10 cyl cam

twin turbo'd 6.8 it is! steal the intercooler from a 7.3/6.0, youre set. it'd almost be bolt in, besides the heck of a job the exhaust routing would be

People have turboed alot of 6.8s. Seems singles are easier for obvious reasons.

I'm actually thinking of one or a supercharger.
