Do you know what the barometric pressure was for before and after? I guess an easier way to tell would be to compare the MAP reading with the engine off to the MAP reading at WOT. That would tell you the loss of pressure through the intake, TB, maf, etc.

PMack, I think you got it. The kpa was 98% with the engine off. (we were expecting rain) The around town logs all show it at 100% normally. I don't know what the BP was at the track. The track is the only place I can get a good start to finish run and make the comparison. I bet the comparisons hold up next time at the track.
Thanks, you saved me from making some mistaken changes.
