Yup, I forgot to attach a link to Derek's thread which is the best source of the most reliable info based on real life test results up to date i think, so two thumbs up for mr.wolf for bringing this up.
Also, kudos to Derek at lethal for doing great comparison of all the intakes :cheers:
If I'd be in your shoes I'd go with tuned version for you will utilize stock maf sensor that will save you $100 versus no tune version so you can purchase Lund tune for $100 less which in the end will yield more noticeable power gains vs no tune intake
Skip to page 5 of this thread or just go briefly thru 8 pages of it, hope it helps http://www.mustang6g.com/forums/showthread.php?t=58860
Regardless of opinions, it is a great deal of info imo.
Big thanks to Dev1360 who started above thread
I believe he meant maf aluminum tubing that is pressed and glued into the air filter base, maf sensor however is mounted to that aluminum tubing with two bolts/screws.

Thanks for heads up on your project, I honestly didn't think you'd go as far as alu driveshaft but I was wrong apparently. Now you got me interested in getting one for myself. And, is it really noticeable power wise that much on the stocky motor? I wonder if you could chime in a bit...
No, it's not you. I would highly recommend 285s. I'm personally staggered on 20s and went the least expensive route, but yea 285 is way to go :thumbsup:

Hey man,I know that feeling very well. At least once you're ready to pull the trigger, you'll know you've spent money well.
Hopefully funds become available soon for your wheel project, they are awesome and make people stare at you like they never seen this car before. These wheels are...
Got some videos done yesterday. Now you can compare your numbers to mine. I'm personally satisfied with the results. My research ends here until my dyno day, I'll do 6 pulls total and will post the results at the end of August. All these runs were done within 1 hour time.
Engine fully warmed...
Same here 6-10* while driving.
I want to get dyno'd just as the setup is right now, just for my own curiosity, I'm planning on to dremel out the grill or just do g delete. As far as box goes it also became clear to me that it's the area that could be improved on as well.
LOL, indeed looks ugly. We used to do this in our rally cars except this version doesn't include a heat resistant sleeve which makes it all tight and neat under the hood. I'm looking to have someone make me a custom sleeve to cover all that mess.
Ok first things first, dev1360 I didn't intend to hijack your thread and if you feel that it's not cool for me to post, please let me know.
I've spent some time making a second prototype today after work. I haven't been able to run around in the traffic to look for quality stuff so I...
Been running PMAS for the last few days in 80-90 degree humid weather and I wasn't thrilled about IAT. I have never seen temps higher than 130 to 140ish with stock intake. With PMAS temps were about 20 degrees higher. This began to bother me enough so I decided to take an action and help PMAS...
Other possibilities I've experienced that may relate to your issue are:
- failing turbo seal or damaged piston ring (early stage) under acceleration engine is burning oil clean but on deceleration or idle excess oil isn't burn as clean resulting in smoking. I brought it up because you mentioned...

I've used them several times over the years and it's a $28 diagnosis with numbers not guesses. Don't worry ahead, stay cool and deal with the issue as it arise.
