- Best Way To Increase Horsepower And Torque In A 2017 GMC Sierra 5.3L V8
- The best way to not only maximize but increase horsepower and torque on your 2017 GMC Sierra 5.3L V8 would involve installing a cold air intake, performance exhaust system, in addition to a performance chip tuner. Using these components will allow your engine to breath better and perform at it's peak output which will increase not only power but also fuel efficiency.
For a cold air intake compatible with your vehicle, I recommend using the Airaid MXP Cold Air Intake System part # AR200-285...

- I have the perfect option available for you. Foreign contaminates are a serious concern when weighing the pros and cons of a cold air intake system. As many aftermarket cold air intake systems are relatively open, they do not offer near as much protection from the elements in comparison to factory air boxes.
However, element containment factors were strongly taken into consideration with the Airaid MXP Cold Air Intake System part # AR200-285 as the majority of the air filter is surrounded...

- For the average consumer looking to add both horsepower and torque to their vehicle, I recommend starting out with a cold air intake system. A cold air intake system will increase power, improve gas mileage, and promote engine longevity. It is one of the easiest modifications to make to your vehicle and is also one of the least expensive. For this I recommend using the Airaid CAD Cold Air Intake System part # AR400-273.
The next system I recommend upgrading is the ECU. This can be done...
view full answer... - Engine Showing Error Code After Installing Cold Air Intake
- According to my research, the most common cause of having that code would be a dirty or improperly installed MAF sensor. Make sure the MAF sensor is fully inserted into the intake tube. Since your system uses an oil-based filter, there might have been too much oil on the filter, which in turn contaminated the sensor. You can pull the sensor from the intake tube, and use an aerosol based electrical contact cleaner on the sensor.
A vacuum leak can cause the error code, as well. Make sure...
view full answer... - What is the Difference Between Stage 1 and Stage 2 Cold Air Intake for a 2012 Ram 2500
- A stage 1 cold air intake will replace the filter and can also replace the box its mounted in. A stage 2 system such as # AR300-237 replaces all of that and has additional equipment, usually a larger diameter hose or collar. The higher the stage number the better the air flow. I have included a link to the cold air intake options for your 2012 Ram 2500.
view full answer... - How much Horsepower will the Airaid Throttle Body Spacer Add to a 2013 Toyota Tacoma
- I spoke with my contact at Airaid and he said that the Custom Throttle Body Spacer, # AR510-624, will give your 2013 Toyota Tacoma an additional 4 to 6 ft pounds of torque and will increase horsepower by 1 to 2. Airaid also said that you will not be able to measure these gains on a dyno because they happen so low in the RPM range.
If you are looking for a more substantial gain, I would recommend installing a cold air intake. We offer the Airaid Cold Air Intake System with SythaFlow...
view full answer... - Will a Throttle Body Spacer Give a Modern Hemi Engine More Power and Mileage
- For some vehicles the throttle body spacers do not provide much of an increase, but for the 5.7 liter Hemi engines in the new Dodge vehicles every review I have found listed a noticeable increase in power and fuel mileage gains between .5 and 2 miles per gallon.
The mileage will depend largely on driving habits but horsepower and torque would realistically be around 5 more for both.
view full answer... - Where to Install Mass Airflow Sensor on Airaid CAD Cold Air Intake System # AR201-145
- The mass airflow sensor (MAS) on your 2003 Chevrolet Silverado 5.3L V8 will install on the Airaid CAD Cold Air Intake System # AR201-145 at the sensor mounting pad on the intake tube. These are not shown in the photos on the product page but I linked an image from the instructions that will help. The written installation instructions are linked for you.
The replacement filter element for this CAI system is part # AR701-469.

- The Airaid CAD Cold Air Intake System # AR401-226 will fit a 2010 Ford F-150 with 4.6L V8 Engine. Since that is what you have this system will work for you. I have also included a link to all of the cold air intakes we carry that will fit your 2010 Ford F-150 with 4.6 liter motor. The intakes will fit both the 2-valve and 3-valve versions of the 4.6.
view full answer... - Does a Throttle Body Spacer Increase Horsepower on a 2010 Chevy Camaro SS 6.2 Liter
- Airaid doesn't Dyno test the throttle body spacers such as # AR200-630-1 for your 2010 Chevy Camaro with the 6.2 liter Corvette motor. Any gain in horsepower would probably not be noticeable on a vehicle that already has a ton of power. It can help the engine run more efficiently.
Using a programmer such as the Flashpaq # SU2845 will provide more power. The estimated power gains are 19.9 horse and 18.3 feet pounds of torque.
view full answer... - Will a Throttle Body Spacer Improve Fuel Economy on a 2008 Jeep Liberty When Towing
- Performance part manufacturers do not actually track mileage improvements because there are many factors that can effect fuel economy such as driving habits, environmental conditions, additional performance enhancement products and the condition of the vehicle.
Fuel economy improvement from a throttle body spacer alone would be minimal, especially when towing. Perfomance enhancement products, such as a throttle body spacer, air intake and exhaust are targeted toward performance vehicle...
view full answer... - Do Throttle Body Spacers Interfere with Cold Air Intakes
- The Airaid PowerAid Custom Throttle Body Spacer # AR450-638 that you referenced should work just fine with the cold air intake system you have installed on your 2011 Ford Mustang. It will add about an inch to your intake track length which your cold air kit shouldn't have a problem accommodating.
Running two throttle body spacers would be a bit redundant and would greatly increase the chance of experiencing a fit issue so I can't recommend you go that route.
view full answer... - How Often Must the Filter be Cleaned on the Airaid Classic Cold Air Intake System
- According to Airaid, the Airaid Classic Cold Air Intake System part # AR200-104 for your 1995 GMC C/K Series Pickup will need to be cleaned every 30,000 to 50,000 miles with the Cleaning and Oiling Kit for Airaid SynthaFlow Air Filters part # AR790-550.
I also recommend using the filter cover part # AR799-420 to protect the air filter from dirt and water as this will help extend the life of your filter.
view full answer... - Do Throttle Body Spacers Affect Idle of a Vehicle
- The idle of a vehicle shouldn't change much at all with the installation of a throttle body spacer like the part # AR300-574 that you referenced. If your idle is off you may recheck the install to be sure there are no vacuum leaks around the throttle body/spacer as that may cause the vehicle to hunt for idle.
The cable configuration for the throttle body would remain the same as well. You shouldn't have to make any adjustments at all.
view full answer... - Would Throttle Body Spacer Void Vehicle Warranty
- A throttle body spacer like the part # AR200-630-1 should not void your engine warranty. But I would recommend you check with a GM dealer.
When you install an aftermarket part on your vehicle likethis, you are protected by the Magnuson–Moss Warranty Act. This act states, in part, that unless the installation and the part caused a problem then the warranty cannot be voided. I recommend looking it up online.
This product is 50 state legal too which means it passes CARB standards. It...
view full answer... - Will Adding Cold Air Intake Increase Gas Mileage on a Ford F-250 XLT V10
- Adding cold air intake # AR403-114 will help an engine to run more efficiently. But if that was the only thing you changed you probably wouldn't notice a difference in gas mileage on a single tank. It might take several months to see an improvement in mileage.
Driving habits will have more of an effect on mileage. Other factors such as the condition of the vehicle, terrain, altitude will also have an effect on the mileage.
view full answer... - Cold Air Intake Recommendation for a 2008 Honda Ridgeline
- If you drive your 2008 Honda Ridgeline mostly on paved roads, I would recommend going with the Airaid Cold Air Intake System with Oil-Based Filter, # AR530-202. With the oil-type filter, it is recommended to clean and re-oil every 25,000 to 30,000 miles. Oiled filters allow for the greatest amount of airflow.
If you drive on paved and semi-dusty roads, then I recommend going with the Airaid Cold Air Intake System with Dry Filter, # AR531-202. The dry filter has the same maintenance schedule...

- Installing the Airaid MXP Cold Air Intake System with SynthaMax Dry Filter - Stage 2 - Fully Enclosed # AR511-302 on your 2017 Toyota 4 Runner will not void your manufacturer warranty.
When you install an aftermarket part on your vehicle like this, you are protected by the Magnuson–Moss Warranty Act. This act states, in part, that unless the installation and the part caused a problem then the warranty cannot be voided. I am not aware of any way that a cold air intake could cause direct...
view full answer... - Torque and Horsepower Gains with Airaid Cold Air Intake on a 2014 Ford F-150 with EcoBoost V6
- Apparently the model they used to test the Airaid cold air intake # AR401-101 did not produce as much power as your 2014 F-150 with EcoBoost motor. I do know that Ford has been known to measure for horsepower and torque at the crank rather than the rear wheels so that could also be why there is a discrepancy.
Airaid claims up to 26 additional horsepower and up to 40 additional feet pounds of torque regardless of the baseline HP and torque values.

- The Airaid Jr. Upgrade Kit for Factory Cold Air Intake - SynthaMax Dry Filter, # AR201-711, is not a direct fit for your 2017 GMC Sierra 1500 with 6.2 L V8. It has provisions for one crank case breather on one of the valve covers and not 2 like you see on the 2017 model, one on each side. However, if you add another breather tube, you can make this system work. This will upgrade your factory intake while maintaining the air box and location but replacing the intake tube and air filter....
view full answer... - Will a Cold Air Intake System and an Exhaust System Improve Fuel Economy on a 2001 Dodge Dakota 4.7L
- A cold air intake like the Airaid CAD Cold Air Intake System, part # AR303-117, is a benefit to the engine because cold air is more dense and therefore is more readily combustible. It will also optimize airflow allowing the engine to breathe easier.
A performance exhaust like the MagnaFlow Exhaust System, # MF15611, for club cab models with 63 inch bed or # MF15739 for quad cab models with a 63 inch bed, will also optimize airflow by reducing the back pressure.
Both products will...

- The Airaid Stage 1 and 2 with oiled or dry filters we offer for your 2015 Ram 1500 (see provided link) are all 50 state street legal, per my contact at Airaid.
The stage 1 systems offer HP increases up to 8, while stage 2 offers HP increases up to 18. Dry filters are best for off road or dusty conditions, while oiled filters are best for use on paved roads in non-dusty conditions.

- As long as your 2011 Dodge Ram 1500 with 4.7 liter engine is equipped with the factory throttle body and intake system, the Airaid PowerAid Custom Throttle Body Spacer, # AR300-626, will work for you. The helix bore design causes incoming air to tumble and spin. This highly atomized fuel-air mixture - along with an elongated intake tract that increases air velocity - leads to more power.
Another great way to increase your engine's performance is to use a programmer like the Edge Evolution...
view full answer... - Throttle Body Spacer and Cold Air Intake Recommendation for a 2014 Ford Mustang 3.7 Liter
- I have a solution for your, but the part # AR450-638 that you referenced would be for the 5.0 liter 2014 Ford Mustangs. Since you have a 3.7 liter you instead would want the part # AR450-636. I confirmed this with AirAid.
I attached installation instructions for you to check out as well. This product would also be compatible with your AirAid Cold Air Intake like part # AR451-265 or # AR450-265.

view full answer... - Difference Between Stage 1 and 2 Airaid Cold Air Intakes
- A stage 1 cold air intake will replace the filter and can also replace the box its mounted in. A stage 2 system such as # AR401-299 replaces all of that and has additional equipment, usually a larger diameter hose or collar. The higher the stage number the better the air flow.
view full answer... - Is the Airaid AR523-284 a Cold Open Air or Closed Air Intake System
- The Airaid # AR523-284 you were looking at for your 2013 Nissan Armada is actually an open air system, because the unit is not fully encased.
The main advantage that the open box systems have over the enclosed box system is that open systems offer the maximum amount of airflow. The enclosed box systems will still have plenty of air flow, just not as much as an open box system. The closed air systems will look like the picture I have linked to this page for your convenience.
