The whole setup looks very nice to me!! And, In all honesty I was not expecting the substantial torque improvement...

BTW, how does meth system work with the MAF?? I didn't think that it could read our mafs.

N54 does not use a MAF, it's perfectly fine.

could the difference be due to the fan blowing directly into the opening on your tube, vs not blowing directly into the dci

whereas if you were not on a dyno, but moving outdoors, there would be the ambient flow also reaching the dcis and minimizing the difference due to dci's not receiving much air in comparison?

would be curious to see logs on a run, dyno looks good though to start

I don't know if there's that much of a torque improvement on the road.
I bet they're very comparable on the street.
I'm just glad that I'm soaking up the cooler air for my engine and I'm glad it sounds like a stock intake.

No, but I wouldn't mind doing tests on the real world.

I used a hole maker for a door knob and a dremel to make it a tad bigger.

I'll see what I can do over the holidays.
Maybe I'll get a V box for Christmas.

I just picked up a Vbox from Rixter so it's going to be interesting to do some before and after testing.
