Intake, Header, HFC, CBE = Too Lean?

Nick911sc · 03-29-2010, 09:44 PM

This thread was super informative. I never would have thought some cars with G3 CBE and HFC would have issues with running lean.

So my question is after reading this thread(since I have some levels of ocd)

When I eventually install HFC and CBE on my car, there will be 0 danger of running lean if I stay with the stock intake without a tune? These 2 things would be my only engine mod.

you will be fine without a tune. And if you just do K&N drop ins you will be fine too as that way you wont be changing the size or location of the MAF section and it will still let the car breath better. And if you decide to do a tune, the canned maps will get you some extra gains too.
