I haven't been in to the track in 3 years so there's no point in me having to deal with that considering it rains pretty much every day in Florida during the summer. I'm probably just going to throw the SLP cai on it and call it a day.

Can't tell any difference in MAP readings. Barometer was 30.4 both runs according to the MAP, video was taken at the same location.

Your MAP reads different values than what mine used to. I thought it was supposed to be a function of 100 at WOT? Am I thinking of another sensor?

WOT no restriction would be 100ish. Some restriction would be 95. Big restriction would be 90ish.

Also, what kind of airflow (volume) is your MAF showing? Before/after?

Scanmaster shows it in inches of mercury not KPA or %.

Not sure it fluctuates quite a bit up top so I doubt it would be an accurate comparison. I might throw it on the dyno with my tuner just to make sure changing the MAF location didn't change the tune at all.

Ahh. Do you have the ability to log it or just live display? Try a comparison of Grams of Air Per Second or whatever it is called.

Do you have the base of your lid (radiator support) in stock form or did you cut the ram air holes under it (where a FTRA would force air into)? Might spend a few minutes cutting the holes in the radiator support and try again.

Running the FRA right now, waiting on an SLP cai. I only have the ability to display live data but my tuner should have some old data logs from the dyno runs when I got tuned.

I think you might be surprised. My simple math on your MAP reading at 6500 shows you still have a restriction. 28.4/30.4 = 93.4% of 1 bar. There is still some to be gained.

Stock filter? K&N?

Paper, did a bunch of reading and I couldn't find one person that gained anything with a K&N. Not to mention they fit like complete **** with the lid's and filter like ****. I always loved how the inside of my intake tract had a coating of dust on it. If I go back to the dyno I'll probably borrow a K&N and swap them out for the hell of it.

For those of you wanting pics of the underside of the hood and a couple pics of the final product.

I see you still have the AC stuff hooked up. Did you just tilt the radiator/condensor back?

No, not sure why I would have to do that.
