    I'm new to this site and I'm just looking for some advise. I have 2014 Tacoma regular cab 2.7 4X4. I'm looking to add some more pep to my and I have bought some add ons and I'm looking to see if I'm headed in the right direction and for some advice. I wanted to bump up some power in my little truck as well as get better mpg. I have bought a LCE headers and an Aero Turbine muffler. I was also looking into an CAI, but I have read on these forums that this year truck has Tacoma's version of an CAI and that it wouldn't be worth the money compared to the gain. I also read that with the muffler and headers and this CAI that's stock on the truck I should just drop in a K&N and see how it all performs together. So does any one have any suggestions or advise on if I should look for an aftermarket CAI or stay where I'm at on what I have bought already. And also I know if I wanted more power I should have bought a V6.... Thank you

    Aftermarket CAI is a waste of time. Avoid oiled air filters. I'm using a dry AFE cleanable filter.
