Building off of this:

Someone can correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure it's recommended to be about 18" from TB from the guys that have been there. I'll go do some digging to confirm...

and yes you do have the issue on the sc ones.. it has NOTHING to do with the 3" maf lol

and the other part is the distance to the TB.. which.. sc balts use a premade intake so their's not a chance of that part being an issue

We will see when I try it out. I think he's right, but then again it might not be.

I'm loading the tune now, results in minutes.

Car runs great with his tune. It's HELLA rich! Smoke out the ass, but it runs ok.

Vince should be able to lean it out. Btw, to let the cat out the bag, maf was in backwards.

Not sure man, it kind of went away. It happened when I turned the lights on too. It was something electrical, every time something came on that required some juice it was just louder than usual. I've never heard of that, it was really weird but it did go away.

Tuning will continue tomorrow.

Hard to get vids when I got a big oil leak and no camera. I'll get vids soon enough.

Had to go to lowes to get some stainless hose, the way I had my return lines wasn't cutting it, it was backing up and oil was getting burned up and that's what caused all the smoke. Once I redo it, it should be all good.
