Default NX Ricky 90mm Update??

Ricky any updates on the 90mm MAF kit? You said maybe 2 weeks until it went to production then 2 more until it was ready do you still think it will only be 2 more weeks?

Keeping my fingers crossed!!

Machine shop has all the prints and the prototype parts I built.. It is in there hands now. I will have a better time line once they give me back a completed cool part. Which I will sale as long as its a good part. Got to get the first one correct on the cnc before punching them out. I will keep yall updated.

No problem, machine shop just called me today, and they are waiting on the material to show up to make me the final first artical. Anytime we have a new part it does take a litttle longer than the reorders do. I will keep you posted.

This is good news. I currently have the standard MAF kit and it works great.

I wanted to go to an upgraded intake but knew the MAF kit would kill off any advantages an LSX would have given me.(it would have been the bottle neck)

Now, if this is 90mm and the new NX intake is 85mm will they work together?

Thanks

The spec sizing on the maf, and intake are just the largest ID points. That really has very little to deal with max flow. The sensor being 90mm is not accurate concidering there is this divider down the middle of it, chewing up all kinds of room... Same thing on the throttle body, you have shaft and throttle blade in the way.

So is the Outside diameter the same so you can run a hose from the MAF kit to the throttle body?
