cold air intake options

Hi guys, I drive 2009 F350 Harley Edition with about 215k on it. I am thinking about getting a cold air intake, programmer or whole dpf delete.
I don't need to see major power gains but a few hp and quicker throttle response would be nice, and obviously any fuel economy gains would be great too. I am wondering if there are any risks because the milage on my truck, I don't dive it hard, mostly highway and some light towing.
Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.

Welcome to FTE.

A cold air intake won't do anything for you and actually the Donaldson is quite good.

Only if you were running a lot more HP over stock would another intake be of use.

I would recommend you look at something like DPF r by gearbox Z. Then maybe just right in deleting the dpf and keeping you close or at stock HP.

Still would need something to monitor your temps though.
