URD Performance Mods

Any Opinions, Comments, Suggestions On These URD Products?!?!?!

CAI
http://www.urdusa.com/product_info.p..._id=1260518504
(how is this TRUE CAI in comparison to others? im looking for that "howling/sucking" sound when u get on the gas...)

MAF
http://www.urdusa.com/product_info.p..._id=1260198051
(is the performance of the CAI that much better w/ this sensor for $220 like they say???)

Are There Others Out There That Anyone Recommends Instead (or in addition to)?!?!?

get the urd exhaust system, supercharger, and C2C headers and you should be all set, lol. Seriously though, urd products are great at one thing, making power. If you are buying this stuff for the cool sound you are buying for the wrong reasons. Get a k&n if all you want is a woosh sound. Not saying the urd intake doesn't sound bad ass though, because it does sound mean.

Those two together are probably the best combo out there. I haven't heard of anything that will give you more power besides the super charger.

The urd n/a package (intake, maf cal, y pipe, and their cat back) is good for about 30 HP. The c2c headers are good for about 15 hp, and everything together will get you around 250 hp to the wheels. The supercharger alone pushes it up to 305 hp, and I think the whole package with meth injection will easily break the 400 mark, and your wallet, but damn it would be fun.

Get the tcai and the maf cal at the same time and they will send you the maf cal calibrated for the intake. . . .

Do you think that URD will sell me the MAF cal calibrated for their intake? I have the downey intake and the gibson exhaust. I just want to get closer to a better tune than the stock set tune. . . Any thoughts?

Maybe I'll just spring for the URD intake too. . . .

So, the power you get is a plus, but what about the gas mileage? I've heard both good and bad.

If you ask for it calibrated to the URD intake they will send it tuned.

If you want better gas mileage ride your bike to work. Buy URD gear for more power. If you drive like a granny, your mileage will improve by a couple mpg. The point is to get more power, but if you need to convince your wife or something it will improve slightly, I got dramatic gains but I mostly commute on the autobahn pedal to the metal. Around town it didn't change much.

In order to get the best bang out of your mod, you need the MAF Calibrator. If I were u, I'd either get the CAI & MAF together, or get the MAF first, then the CAI. Tuning is the key to the best performance, and that's where the MAF comes in to play. If you cannot afford to do the CAI & MAF together, at least if you had the MAF, you could tune in the stock setup...and believe it or not, there is room for that. As you add performance mods, retune for the new configuration.

+1... URD stands for Underdog RACING Development...the key word here is RACING. Their products are designed primarily for power & performance, not better MPG. However, the MAF Calibrator, if tuned properly, may give you slightly better mpg than the stock map. After installing mine, with the preloaded map from URD, I noticed an increase of approximately 1-2 mpg.

if I installed the URD supercharger, will I still be able to tow heavy trailers? I know it sounds dumb, but would it put more strain on the stock transmission?
