it's worthless.....the maf is the restriction....how can going to a 70mm t/b up from a 60mm going to help if the maf is 55mm?..put a 73+mm maf on a stock t/b you'll see an improvement...

the new maf will help a lot if you have the 70mm tb. i did 70mm tb and 76mm maf and at the time had no idea what an air silencer was or even that it was there. the air silencer is 60mm i believe. when i yanked that hunk of $hit out, i noticed a huge change
