Larger Mass Air Flow
 
This is common in the Audi tt world. A larger Mass Air Tube (say 10%) then you increaase Fuel Pressure 10%. All things balance and you reduce intake restrections, IE increase the air to the motor, only a minor increase in total power but response is greatly improved. I saw the steep-down in my CAI tubes and thought about changing it.

i would talk to modshack before doing this...(?)

I think you might have to be able to crack the VVEL to do that ?

Call GTM! They have the VVEL solution and the larger mass air tubes along with the ability to tune it all!

Yes do tell!

It will all be released with my car. Conjecture says something along the lines of a piggyback or standalone unit to control VVEL. Sam has some big things in store *cough* possibly some N/A monsters ;) *cough* you didnt hear it from me!!!! I wasnt even here!!!:wtf2:

Haha, thanks Bullitt! N/A options would be absolutely amazing as a tie over before FI.

So cough up the time frame..... when will we get to hear more about all this?

Oh please don't allow this discussion to any further. The stock MAF housings provide more than enough flow for whatever power you're ever going to make N/A. The fact that our engines already have two intake tracts provides MORE THAN ENOUGH capacity for future modifications.

But go ahead, waste your money ;) Just don't confuse this N/A platform for one that greatly benefits from induction modifications like with pre-turbo intake modifications on an Evo, STi, Audi TT/S4, whatever...

SCSI is right we were going to stay with stock sized MAFs but then revised our plans since we are looking at beyound 1000rwhp. look at it this way... if the stock MAFs are good for 500hp turbo cars you arent going to need bigger ones on a N/A car... Tunning will provide the best bang for the buck and with GTM's 1st unit coming out this month you better believe your gonna want some!

Something that controls the actuators directly? When will we hear more about this?
