Any company developing intakes for the Telluride?

Mfg. will advertise that their products don't require a tune, & while there will be some benefit, to get the max result, you really need a tune to wake it up.
The OEM computer is limited on what it can do, while a tune changes the values, which result in greater performance gains. A tune by itself, with no other changes, can result in some great performance gains..
.
No kidding. But an intake and exhaust getting more in and out you should be able to net about 20WHP without a tune. Standard practice. Not looking for big power and upgrading my ride like I did my STI where I took it to over 600WHP 'with a tune' after so many-many engine modifications and everything else. Note: I raced it on a track. :)

I would expect a tune alone to net better than 20rwhp.................if the tuner knows what he's doing..

Agree, CAI, larger throttle body, headers, & a street tune to set it in motion.
Like to see that STI dyno sheet, they weigh nothing, must be a hand full on the street !!
