I'm at 3" MAF, but unfortunately when I first added it I also installed a pop charger that day. Best comparison I can offer is V+ + pop charger= 242hp/216tq (very first tune); V+ + 1/2" spacer + '06 airbox= 261/239 (most recent & 3rd tune). Too many variables between dynos to determine gains. But just adding a 1/2" spacer shouldn't see gains like that. So IMO, I think having the 3" MAF really takes advantage of getting just that little bit more air in the intake.

Oooh quite nice! 18hp and 23tq with no exhaust bits. I know it's on different days, but still quite nice. I'd like too do a 3.5 with a larger tb. But that's only if the tax man is nice, or If nothing comes up.
I can't eat to see how the hr responds to the 3". It might give me more reasons to be jealous.

And I've thought about the larger TB, just can't seem to justify that purchase just yet....ya ya, among my other purchase I might as well

2.36" to 3" folks! Step up and place a bet! Who knows how the mysterious hr will react?!
Will the hr love it?
Is three inches too much?
One man aims to find out!
Place your bets before the big day! Results Saturday ! Saturday ! Saturday!

Will be doing a baseline with the Stillen Gen2 Intakes right when we get there, install 3" intakes, and let Bobby tune it, then will have final #s.
- and as i said in my earlier post, I hit 303whp and 272ft lbs with the 3.5 final drive in. I now have a 3.9 final drive. Bobby has told me that every car he has tuned with shorter gears always drops power on the dyno.

dont get too carried away.
but no, i would love to do long tube headers and tomei 264s at the same time. would be nasty to have a ~325whp 3.9 FD HR lol.
cough cough, who knows, cough cough maybe a 75-100 shot down the road..
never know.
