I'm still going to try the mod I suggested, to see if there are any significant changes, even if it is good or bad, you never know till you try. As far as I can see in order for a system to be truly CAI it needs to be getting air from outside the bay.
ur 4.6is should have an air duct that feeds the intake, at least
on the AFE kit it does. i don't know about the Dinan setup. look
at the pic below. if u look directly across from the silver ring that's
near the MAF, u should see an opening for a tube. air comes out of
that opening and is fed into the air filter. also, the filter sit behind
the headlight; so, it will get air from behind the bumper.
