In some cases, yes an enclosed system will be better. If you are mostly driving in very dusty, wet or muddy areas an enclosed system, similar to your stock set up, is much more beneficial to you. By keeping the filter element away from debris it will not only extend your filter life but also increase your overall performance and economy.

No. All of the aftermarket systems we carry are designed to be direct bolt on with common hand tools in your driveway. In some cases the stock system will have to be cut to get it out from under the truck but that’s it.

This is one of the most popular questions we get. The difference between the two is that a programmer / tuner installs inside the vehicle via the OBD port and re-flashes the truck with a new program storing the stock program in the programmer / tuner. A chip / module either install under the hood by “piggy backing” the stock plugs and sensors or plugging directly into the trucks ECU inside the truck. Both of these methods in most cases require no cutting, but may require splicing into an under hood harness.

We try our best to prevent damage to all packages during transit by packing each order carefully. From time to time, though, damage will occur despite our precautions. If you receive an item that has been damaged in shipping, please call us within 72 hours of receipt and we will have a new product sent to you, and initiate a UPS claim for the item. Please hold on to the original packaging and packing material because UPS, in most cases, will need to inspect the items. A UPS representative will contact you to set up a convenient time to inspect and pick up the package for return. If UPS does not come to inspect the package, or does not take it with them when they do come – please call us, and we will send you a UPS Return tag to send the damaged product back to us. If you have not received your order even after the tracking shows it was delivered, contact us within 15 business days to start a UPS tracer.

If you return a product without first contacting our Returns Department sales@wcaperformance.com, for a Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA) number, it will take up to 3 weeks to be processed and we may charge you up to a 15% restocking fee at our discretion.

Packages will be returned back to us by the carrier if they cannot be delivered due to incomplete or incorrect addresses, are not picked up from a UPS facility, or if the recipient refuses delivery.
