However, to get the most out of the Stillen intakes in particular, I still believe that a tune is necessary in order to tune the A/F ratio for safe and optimal power as the different diameter of the G3 intake pipes will cause the MAF to see a higher total volume of air flow.

There are numerous threads on this whole debate already, I think the title of the thread only serves to stir a well documented pot.
I thought ive heard that these gains are like 14 - 18 or whatever but thats on stock cars. Once you put exhaust pieces on they drop to close to what the Post MAF tubes create with exhaust pieces on. Thats why people go for them. Has anyone with exhaust pieces on their cars dyno'd before and after with any intakes?
