some sort of velocity stack?

XwChriswX · 01-18-2013, 06:20 PM

Will there be an option to use Dry filters vs K&N oiled ones?

And for those of you who wanna know what the secret is, I know, and I'll tell...

Looks like a restrictor to funnel air down to the MAF's standard diameter to make the factory tune work.

The NISMO R spec intakes have those as well, tho made out of plastic.

I dunno, if you look at the second picture, the MAF piping diameter is the same before and after, unless it is all necked down from the filter back.

The 'Magic Part' that he's talking about is an insert that slides in right before the MAF. See there's a coupler there?

You just take the coupler off, slide that into the tube with the maf hanging down in the slot cut in the 'Magic Part' and then put the coupler back on.

I don't really know why they'd call this a magic part, it's just a bandaid fix to get around requiring a tune with the intakes.

Alstann · 01-21-2013, 12:33 AM

^ Ahh....I see that now. I guess that makes sense now. Speaking in terms of flexibility, I suppose that is kinda useful if you decide to get them before Uprev, and then decide to tune the car later.

Band-aid fix sounds extremely back-yard ghetto rigged. This piece is cnc'd and milled precisely to 1) fit inside the intake, both easily slid in and out 2) be of precise ID to not trip the MAF on a stock tune

And yes, the beauty is exactly that Alstann, the intake is full 2.75" from beginning to end, and with the MAF insert you can run it on the stock tune, or if you are getting an UpRev tune, you can take advantage of the larger diameter via a tune

ts-c63 · 01-21-2013, 10:40 AM

What if you already have HFCs and exhaust will it still not require a tune ?

lemon-fresh · 01-21-2013, 11:05 AM

Interesting, I'm in for the dyno results and pricing. Hopefully the dyno is with the bumper on.

With the MAF insert in, you will not require a tune. Will you benefit from a tune, well of course, and from which you would remove the insert and rescale a few tables to recalibrate the MAF

haha we dyno'd it with the bumper off and cold air blowing directly into the filters

jk

I've got to run back to the dyno to pull the charts, but on an 7AT I believe it picked up 11hp and 7tq, I'll have to confirm that

Do you need to cut anything for the intake to fit?
