$480 before noon sounds like you got off cheap honestly. Woke up to mine snapped on a Sunday in Fresno cost me $625 with the emergency weekend fee. Springs are gonna break eventually anyway better it happened in your driveway than out on the road.

Nah man, did you stake the tarp down right or just throw rocks on the corners?

Your 5.0 is a Coyote right? Cold air intake alone usually doesn't add much on those unless it's paired with a tune. The tuner probably dialed in the intake as part of the package, not the other way around. I've seen a few guys chase power with just a CAI and end up losing a couple hp because the stock tune gets confused.
