I'm looking for more low end acceleration and am thinking about CAI. Is this the right choise and who makes the most perfered one (where can I pick that up)?
I already have exhaust done and the computer reprogramed and I want more power.

What engine do you have?

Also, what exactly do you mean by a computer reprogram? What did you have done, and by whom?

I have the 3.4 V-6. As for programming, nothing major was done, my air/fuel mixture was changed as well has other minor changes to gain a little hp. My local mechanic did it for me when my exhaust was installed.

CAI will definitely be your next step. Then headers, if you have the $$$.

CAIs can be picked up at APOC (www.americanperformanceofcolorado.com)
or at Doctor Speed
(www.doctorspeed.com)

I chose the latter, as Doctor speed could deliver in 6-11 days, whereas APOC has some severe back-order issues.

Another alternative is making you own CAI. Consult the HOW-TO section for more on this

Definitely go with the CAI, however it won't help much on the bottom. It will help you out on the top end. I actually noticed a slight loss of acceleration in my bottom end after I put on my CAI and exhaust.

I have been dealing with John for tons of parts. I have never once received poor customer service. John has always replied to my emails promptly and has been nothing but professional. Delivery delays are inevitable when you dont make all your own parts. Slow delivery isnt poor customer service when its caused by things outside of your control.

Well didnt know you've been in my shop lately.
and actually thats not what I say.
How would you know when you cant even read my post correctly.
I said MOST not all.
The rest will be going out next week
I've siad the goal in the past was to get out 10 a week then everything went nuts
problems have been resolved though and there is almost 3,000 worth of cai parts sitting in my shop.

guess you'll see when the back order is over next week!

Glad someone understands.

I'm trying to sorce more options to avoid things like this in the future.
I'm also working extinsively on an inventory.
Many changes are being made and after they are complete most intakes will be received 3-7 business days after ordered
