Last year I put on a K&N 63-3070 63 series CAI on my 2010 tahoe and it seems the engine bogs down when I accelerate then it gets up and goes? I've been looking at borla exhaust sytems. Do you think adding exhaust will help with the engine bogging down? Besides that I love the CAI. I would think the exhaust would help. Any suggestions? Thanks

Tune. If you don't have a tune, the intake is probably doing more bad than good.

Yup, tune it. Your running leaner during Accel Enrichment with a CAI, so adding some fuel to those lean spots will make a world of difference..
