    I was wondering if i mounted the MAF to the TB and then ran the 4'' pipe off of that if that would work? Just wondering cuz i wanna make and intake but would rather use the 4'' than the 3''.

    That would be the only feasible way I would think you could do that.

    It doesn't, as far as throwing codes goes.

    Mine threw codes due to a issue with the MAF sensor and it did not like the 4 inch. Some people do get lucky with the 4 inch and dont get codes but if it does give you codes just go down to the 3 inch.

    The more bends the worse the performance...plus the fact it is 3" kills it too.

    I'm running...

    3" 45* bend off the TB into the MAF
    3" to 3.5" coupler
    piece of 3.5" pipe to a 3.5" bpi Velocity stack with an R2C filter in the fender wall
