    oooo, umm. I'm pretty sure my unichip can run it. apparently the MK1 was designed to run using stock systems though, without a programmer, so it shouldn't matter i'm thinking

    Ok, So honestly, I know there has been lots of posts on CAI's. What does one really gain from installing? Have an 09 trd sport and was thinking of the K&N 77 intake. I've always had KN filters and cleaning them is NO big deal. Just wondering what I would gain in installing this?

    I have one and I love it. That was the first thing I did when I bought my truck and it brought up my MPG by 2 or 3. I recommend them.

    So you didn't put the K&N in first thing when you bought your truck like you said.
