Murray, did cin mention if the stock MAF sensor would have any issues occupying the full 3" housing, or would the extra half inch be wasted because the MAF sensor wouldn't reach far enough across the opening?

Oh I know guys lol. That was a couple hours ago. Making progress! Seeing some gains already and he's not revving past ~6200ish yet.

Results hopefully within next couple hours?

I'm pumped, and it's pretty cool to see potentially a new trend in intakes taking shape before our eyes.

BM won't tell the real secret...that his intakes are made of raceranium, instantly good for 50+hp!

Lol you guys are going to laugh. ****ing got an hour of the way home and bobby calls me to tell me I left my laptop and phone charger at the shop. So I'll have to get it tomorrow hopefully. Anyways, I don't have any videos because I loaded them ontop my laptop.

However I have this picture of the gains/dyno graph of the before/after.

Came in and threw it on dyno with stillen intakes. Hit 285/257 consistently (again, power drop expected with 3.9 final drive)

After hours and hours of tweaking/tuning I left out of there with 299/267 consistent runs.

I am very happy. But this absolutely can't be done at all without towing your car to the tuner, or doing the scaling/tuning yourself (for the people who may see this thread and not be aware)

Anyways, I apologize for leaving my laptop like a dumbass, so no videos yet, but here is the picture of both graphs overlapped.

I'm sold. I'm doing this!

My guestimation is that with a re-tune this should ballpark around $1000, does that sound about right?
