SPL readings and carburator flow arecompletly different kettlr of fish to forced induction (turbo cars).

The MAF does have a grill before the actuale sensor to 'straighten' the airflow and its part of the actual MAF itself.

So... removing the trumpet will have no "negative" effects right?

I would of thought not, Mike.

Considering I have a open cone filter straight onto my MAF and I have no problems

Oh yeah! On another note, do you know what size the vacuum pipe is that goes into the top of the DV? I need some more as mine keeps splitting a bit as the Forge one is slightly bigger than the OEM one!

I think I'm using 4mm ID, Mike.

You can get it quit cheep off ebay or even from Forge.

I dont see it that way. Its still airflow through a pipe in both applications. And it will hurt the airflow if the trumpet is removed, Im 100% sure. The amount of flow may be insignificant it removes, I dont know because I havent measured one and never will

Cheers! Don't need it at the moment but I will do if I keep trimming the vac pipe that goes into the top of the DV... keeps splitting

just seeing if your going to the RR day would like to see if you had got any gains from your airbox mod

Not sure if I'm going, running in a half marathon on that Sunday so will be taking it easy all day! Only gain is noise I think...

Latest mod has arrived

Well, I have been away all week (went to Rome with the wife and my mum) and when I returned yesterday there was something waiting for me... my latest mod for the FR!

I bought it off a member on this forum and it should transform the handling of the FR.... Any ideas?

Whiteline arb?

Whiteline rear ARB?

Maybe...

You said it, so i'm guessing the same as above

What did you cut your splitter with, if you use a hack saw doesn't it leave the edges rough? or do you sand them after

Hacksaw left a good finish IMO, might sand it off a bit one day when I can be bothered. The ends look OK so I will probably leave them.

If not ARB, lowering springs then?
