AFE Stage2

Is any one running the stage 2? How are you liking it? Is it worth the extra $.

Are you running any kind of fuel module or tuner?

Yes, Im running SCMT, but the AFE was my first mod. Had just AFE on for 2000 miles without any other mods. Has anyone else used AFE, and did it make any diff besides cleanable?

I think you may have seen more of a difference if the airbox was installed after the SCMT. With stock programming, there isn't enough fuel present to require the extra air that the AFE will provide.

I tried the AFE stage II, it caused my check engine light to come on and now I'm in the process of returning it to the dealer.
