It will be a little while til we install the Fang vents which are really an integral part of this. So far, the new Tube diameters seem to be working great on my car.. I'm sure John will post his impressions when done....He's still in the break-in phase though!....

What is it that the larger MAF tube does for you? Tricks the ECU into dumping more fuel?

Yup. We're talking correction factors...Your AFR's are fine. 12.5-12.8 would be ideal for WOT power..

This change is not as radical as the MOFO I build for the VW/Audi's which requires fuel correction.. Theory:
