How big is the Fast toys lid? before and after modified... Yeah and TSP should have made the lid IMO..

I don't remember the measurements, but I'm guessing the lid ID was maybe 5mm smaller than the OD of the MAF. What I did was put the end of the lid in some boiling water, softened the plastic, then slid it onto the MAF and put a hose clamp on while the plastic got hard. The lid and MAF look like they were made foe each other.

Thats a good idea, how did you run the lid into the mass airflow with out a tubular connection or bellow?

As I said in my previous post, I softened the lid and slid the MAF inside it. No need for a tube or bellow, just a worm screw clamp.
