Show me where to get it and I'll test the **** out of it. I have no problem moding a intake. I just need to get one first.
So I need:
1) Intake - Dejon or Injen to test
2) Silicone Coupler - Vibrant DUH!!
3) Two T-bolt Clamps - Ha! What brands are any good?
4) Air Screen - Need suggestion

That wire mesh may work okay.
Here's one built into a MAF used on Vette applications:

Here's another idea... the one used for the MS3: http://www.kstech.biz/servlet/the-14...ghtener/Detail
$11.50
It says it fits 2.75" tubing.

A thread that compares the cost, power gains, install difficulty, warranty issues (ease of hiding tune), popped pistons tally, basic principle of how each tune works (canned vs custom) and driveability... of the big tunes out there (PPC, Superchips, GMS1, HP, Trifecta, ZZP).
Let me know what you think, if your interested we can get started whenever.
Just a thought

Agreed
Term first of all great write up. Second of all what do you say you and me write up a tuning thread, I did DP's you did Intakes now with a Tune section we could potentially create a thread called "All You Need to Know About Modding Your SS/TC". Obviously you would be the expert on tuning I would more or less put stuff together and help

345 is still not 360+ And as stated previously, I wouldnt be so hung up on numbers if it was within an acceptable margin. Not to mention now it says 24psi is teh latest tune when Blueberry dyno'd your tune at 22 to get those numbers you are claiming. End the debate, post the graph already
And Im hung up on numbers? You brought up numbers with my 60-100 times yet you ignore my question about how my dense air could make my car faster yet I dont come close in whp to you? Any thoughts on that one?
And I agree on the Cmiller front. We're throwing a 24-25psi tune on it now and 11.7-11.8 def seems attainable!

Ignore the A/F. Leaded race gas tainted sniffer LOL. Scanner never showed richer than 0.844 lambda This was at 21-22 psi 0.86 lambda and 15* of timing. Dejon SRI, DP, CPs, CB, IC. 3rd gear pulls. Never used 4th for any of my runs.

Not a thread on how to tune, just a thread comparing all of the tunes out there and basically the pro's and con's of each, except with a lot of detail. There is a new GMS1, Trifecta or HP thread poping up everyday asking the same questions.

That's your old one that even in your thread says tuned by you and someone else, and it's shy about 20whp of your claims...Not to mention how amazing that whp number is with .86 lambda and only 15* timing..
Ill bet it's that HAPPY HAPPY dyno http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&sourc...XMX78p22mGod5g

I concur with the honey comb, one shop used it on the ms3 with great results.
here is what the CPE and cobb look like, this is the cpe sri:
Also AEM who made the MAzdaspeed 3 intake, sells a insert like stamina posted, that just drops into the intake tube infront of the maf.

I like the honeycomb airflow straightener the best idea compare to the AEM version for the mazdaspeed. Just don't know if the part itself will fix all the problems that doesn't require a tune for an aftermarket CAI.

It will make tuning easier and will also allow the car to runs a ton better even without tuning because the fuel trims will be more consistant so the A/F will not be bouncing around as much.

It just occured to me that some friends of mine got their hands on a newer copy of Alldata, including the TCs and such. I'll see if they could look up the part for the 9-3.
