hmmm,,,, lets see pm is what I was looking for. But it is an open forum, sure why not. The only way to make something better is to hear the good the bad of your own product.lol

I've already PMd you...but folks the basic system is plug and play as it can be. I'm adding my first window switch which is easy too once the circuit is fully absorbed. Get some brackets from Dave (that leave planty of room around the bellows) and it's pretty sweet. I did plumbing tonight. We mounted my Fuel Pressure Guage and Nitrous Pressure aguge too. Pillar gauges take time...Tough going for a guy 6'2" 285 lbs running all these wires. Ricky i'll share my total thoughts soon via PM.

those 90' are to clear a stock air box, I know they are not use most of the time. We can put a couple of different fitting choises in the system, for the end user to use or not use those 90's. Good point
I gotcha Robert, I did see a picture of that very thing. Been looking at going a little farther apart, just have not made up the old mind yet. Right now the over all flow distance is really short.
I thank everyone that has posted publicly and pm'ly.haha

The maff system has alwasy been my favorite. As for current F-body maff. I think more would sell if it was not so expensive.. I think maybe some people really do not care to have a TPS switch so they can not see the advantage in paying the extra cost for it to come in the system..
Now the new style maff kit for the vettes need the TPS because that system is built for a drive by wire application.. However the f-body kit does not..

Ok, so from what I am seeing is the,
90' need to go, or make provisions not to use them,
TPS is in Question
And the noid rub on the 1pc maf.
Anything else,?

I personaly prefer a TPS than a microswitch under the pedal. Dont get me wrong. We have done microswitches under the pedal on mustangs back in the day. On some of these new cars putting a switch under the pedal is dangerous. The throttlebody will not open as fast as you can push down the pedal. This can cause a huge problem. By leaving the TPS in this system you are iliminating the posibilty for disaster..
From my conversations with many people. Most of them prefer the TPS also and do not like the idea of a micro switch under the pedal. I always listen to the customer to see what is wanted and what they do not like. You do have a select few that want to save a few dollars and put it under the pedal.. But most want the TPS. The majority of people run a TPS.
Now on the regular maff kit for the F-bodys. This system does not have to have a TPS. You can safely run a wot switch with no problem. If the customer wants a TPS on it they could buy it seperatley..
