Is a CAI for '09 Hemi Ram worth it?

Anyone up to date on this? A buddy asked me if he should shell out for an aftermarket intake on his 09 Hemi. Will there be any noticible gains?

I doubt it. Personally I would spend the money on a decent drop in and put the money saved toward a programmer.

I had an 06 TRX4 1500 Hemi with a Superchips and while nothing to write home about, it was noticeable. Prior to that I had a K and N drop in and could tell no difference.

My wife has an 08 hemi. I put a CAI on it that had a throttle body spacer, and with the exhaust, it woke that thing up.

I'm leary of programmers with the gas trucks, they don't seem to give much gain. I have never put on on her truck, however.

Hemi truck club seems like a decent hemi website, I was on it a few years back.
