Cold Air Intake Any Difference?

Hi,

I was wondering if anyway has installed a cold air intake could state if it has made a difference. Not just in feel, but perhaps dyno results before and after?

Do a query for CAI. Lots of threads have been done on every topic for the XF. You name it we discuss it right down to the little seat warmers that might go out. Good luck in you search.

Best results come with a CAI and a corresponding tune.
DYNO results of me were 154 wheel HP stock to 192.5 Modded.

A net boost of 25% HP at the wheel.
Yeah, I'd say it helped.
