All it ends up doing is making the tune more time consuming to change the MAF curve around and I see no good coming from basically hacking or tricking the ecu into thinking something else with the AEM boxes. If stillen makes a 2.34" ID pipe the whole way from behind the filter to the TB, then so should everyone else since that's the ID of OEM too.
I am planning on getting a tune. I've had a few people recommend to me going with a CAI with a larger diameter such as the AAM 2.75" and the Admin Tuning 3" for more flow, but considering what you are saying perhaps it would be best to go with Stillen, Z1, or the like if theres no plans to enlarge the ID elsewhere. Does anyone else agree with Synolimit?

"Technically you should not having issues in R-Line mode either with a proper tune. I "think" we were not tuning the MAF scaling correctly but, at the same time, I also don't know of anybody that has successfully tuned them in R-Line. I'd love to hear from them tho "

Any updates on this anyone ? Anyone find success with this intake ?
