But it did help me learn something so I won't knock anyone for throwing it in there to learn something like the OP. Honestly if you do scale the maf for that intake (probably even being a replica) or better yet for those who have not bought a new CAI just delete the sound amplifier stuff.. and rescale the stock and I bet it will improve as from Wayne Roms pov almost all stock tunes are not dialed even with stock airboxes. But I really noticed the car will have a smoothness to it's acceleration that stock doesn't have on petrol.. on E85 it didn't have that but having to costantly use to trim to adjust for ethanol content affected that.

I didn't say it would be faster if you re scale it
