so I recently bought a tuner and cai for my new to me 2011 5.0 from a reputable company and spent the extra money on their cai also because I heard it was one of the better intakes. After the install of both I honesty couldn’t tell a single power difference. The car shifts much firmer but that’s all I noticed. I figured they would’ve raised my shift points etc etc. do I need to ask for stuff like that specifically? Thanks for the help in advanced
Not very happy after cai and tune install

What intake and who is the tuner?
In my experience, when I first got a tune (Bama) and Steeda intake, the drive ability was not the best and I honestly did not feel too much in power difference on my 2014 5.0
I then decided to get a Palm Beach Dyno tune and throw on an 18 intake manifold along with my Steeda intake and went through the data logging process with my tuner.
Drivability immediately improved and I clearly gained a good chunk of power after 5500 rpm.
To be honest though, you won’t feel a huge difference with just an intake and tune. Get some headers and/or intake manifold and then you can feel the gains.

Great advice.
Unfortunately you probably wont get an answer since "chad" hasnt been on in almost a year.
