Good-morning, all!

I just picked up my '16 SRT Hellcat Charger 5 days ago and I'm starting to mod it out with bolt-on accessories. I am waiting to do any ECU/TCU/Engine modifications for a while so I can enjoy the car and it's power. However, I have already ordered my AWE Track Edition Exhaust which is going on in 2 days and I am looking for a good CAI now. I have heard throughout the forums and word-of-mouth of 3 name brand CAI's that people tend to lean to. LMI, BWoody, and aFe. What would you guys recommend out of these three? I am more leaning towards Bwoody or LMI to be honest, one for the appearance and two because 90% of the Hellcat's I have found on social media run those two.

Also, I understand that the two of those that I am more interested in come with a rain shield.. how important is it to utilize that rain shield? I live in Boston, MA.. the weather here is wicked and confusing. Do you guys run the rain shield or no? I have heard that some people only run them when it is going to rain haha.. others run them always unless they are at the track. Figured I would drop in here to see what you guys recommend before making a purchase!

It does well in rain with the shield. Additionally, you can put on a rain sock over the filter.

I went with the afe stage 2. I don’t have to worry about the weather as I live in California and don’t drive it in the rain lol but if I did they make a rain shield for it. I found that this was the best for performance after lots of research no matter how many mods

Bwoody looks the part and makes the whine on these cars sound AMAZING. We have had their CAI on a few of our personal rides and they have been great.
