Honestly bro, I would drop the SD, it seems like its going to be a nightmare.

Go with One charge pipe - maybe 4.5"-5" with the maf extenders. put a honeycomb before the mafs and call it a day. This would be the most cost and time effective route.

Remember, we know this works to some extent, my car idles better than the stillen kit, the response and drivability is a 100% better. Your shop could make that pipe in a few hours.

We are going to talk about it Monday but I agree, that it's probably the easiest way to do it.

What are MAF extenders?

The slot you slide and screw the MAF into comes in different sizes. There's a standard and an extended version. It basically moves the sensor closer to the outside of the pipe so you gain 'cheat' and gain a little more out of the sensor. My 3" intake tubes Sasha built me have the extenders and my tuner uses them all the time to gain that little extra.

I got tuned by Seb a couple weeks ago and he was also telling me you need a 4 bar MAP. He uses the one from the gtr. Direct bolt in

Or just do it like I did. I did this In my garage. 7 dyno pulls later I'm idling perfect and am putting down almost 500 to the wheels.

JWillis72 11-25-2015 05:21 PM

I have two different picture of your set up also that I'm taking. One has the MAFs in the y pipe and the other has them closer to the TBs, the second one is the one you tuned correct?

No. I tuned it with them in the y.

JWillis72 11-25-2015 05:38 PM

Oh good, mine are set up like that in the y we have we would just need to add a straight piece and the air straightener.

JWillis72 SC'r'd Yellow Jacket is now over 100 days in the shop ...
Mines still in the shop as well ... latest hold is the gauges configuration ~ installation ...
An-n-nd waiting on some other small parts to-o-oo.

GaleForce [Jason] is custom fabricating a cubby console for me to house 2 gauges.
It'll be super nice when it's done. :D
Might even leave it in the shop over the winter - they are working on their own Intake Manifold in January...[insert drool here].
One good thing about all this is that the average yearly mileage is going down in leaps and bounds !!!
Pretty soon I'll have a low mileage car :woot::woot::woot:

JWillis72 11-25-2015 06:09 PM

Yep, today was 102 days but it's an 09 with 32k so it's already low miles. We just got out of the 90s last week so it's driving season now so it hurts she is still there but I didn't think this would be easy.

I 3D printed a custom cubby mount for my gauges and phone. I'll have to post a pic.

My car is an 09 with 16K miles..lol.. Its always in the garage. And now that I'm in Minnesota, it will see even fewer miles. But I like driving my awd cts. That DI engine has snap!

JWillis72 11-25-2015 06:15 PM

I do want to see that at some point, I love the idea.

Definitely would like to see a pic of your cubby mount ...
BTW - did your Z make it to Minnesota yet ?

TopgunZ 11-28-2015 12:50 PM

Z is in the parent's garage. I took her out the other day but it was just spin city. It was only 34 degrees out.

Who can recommend some cold weather tires that hook?
