Search, theres a lot of info out there.

I have aftermarket CMDP installed.... They require a re-tune of the computer, and even then I seemed to lose some torque to gain the higher-end horsepower. Not necessarily a bad mod, but you need to know what youre getting into.

The worst part is you can't flash the computer back to stock and just put the stock airbox back onwhen you visit the dealer, because the CMDP need the tune to run.

The original question was about modifyingthefactory CMCVnot about store bought deletes.

None of the responses in this thread (including howarmat's links) appear to
address the original post.

I have considered this as well but am not sure if only the end holes would need to be filled or if
all the holes would need to be filled? Also what is the best way to fill the holes?

Steeda sells what looks like modified stock ones, so I'm sure its possible, but for $150 or so it doesn't make sense to screw with your stock ones, that way you can just put it all back to stock if you want later...

The Steeda Economy Plates are factory plates that were never machined.
We used to get them for $89 from FRPP before Steedadecided tothreaten
a lawsuit overpatenting "deleted CMCV's".

I'll be able to tell you by the end of the month as mine will be at my house Dec. 14 but I won't be able to start working on them until Dec. 28 at the earliest. I'm planning on filling all the holes where the shaft goes through but until I get them, I'm just speculating on a plan. So far I'm figuring tappin the holes and filling them with set screws with green Loktite. I figured $30 and a couple hours work was cheaper than the economy plates.

screws in the intake doesnt sound like a good idea. I would weld them up if possible. Just my 2 cents.

All the holes would need to be filled. Not worth it in my opinion, just get a set of the economy delete plates from Steeda. You should be able to find them for $100 or less used.

I bought a set of the Steeda billet plates for $90 used.
