I am in a bit of a bind. My wife and I can not decide whether we want the MRT V2 or the Flowmaster 40 series so we have decided to let the forum decide. Any suggestions?

Hey guys Im a newbie here. I drive a 2012 45th Anniversary convertible with a v6 LFX engine. I was contemplating on adding a cold air intake and chip for extra hp and mpg. I was wondering if it is worth it and if so any recommendations?

Thanks!

GretchenGotGrowl · 04-15-2013, 03:28 PM

Forget the chip, they are worthless. Lot's of options for a CAI and it will add a bit of power. Sounds good, too.

Gretchen is right....don't ever buy anything advertised as a chip and no ebay specials. A real, proper tune works well for boosting power on the LFX.

mike45 · 04-15-2013, 09:56 PM

thanks, i will definitely look into a tune. why would you say the chip is worthless?

It's kind of hard to explain, just think of it as a tune is solid gold and chip is gold plated. Tune = performance, a chip = just for looks

It will be update soon. I have literally had stuff to do every day. Don't worry it will be updated

Thanks for the intel i appreciate it. I was talking to a mechanic today and got some prices for a tune. He said it would be cheaper if i did i bought a tuner like a diablo and installed it myself. any recommendations on tuners? maybe something a little cheaper?
