AAM, can you talk me through the MAF location? I was under the impression the rule of thumb is that you wanted it spaced further away from a change in diameter, like when the coupler meets the hard pipe in the pic above. Is that not the case? I'm not armchair quarterbacking, I'm genuinely curious.

Good observation. We did extensive testing on the MAF sensors and that location provides a very stable and consistent flow while allowing us to retain the factory harness and connectors. You will find that this setup idles ultra smoothly similar to the stock setup and the larger diameter of the piping allows more air flow allowing more power before the OEM MAF sensors peak.

Very cool. Thanks for clearing that up.
