I run a Pro-M 80mm mass air system with an S&B open end filter.
I am replacing the plastic elbow because it has a bad radius though. There is still a few more HP in a gradual bend elbow.

Is the stock style maf to tb tube better than that Pro M tube? That is a sharp bend but did they make it taper down for more power or does the design just suck?

Sure, Well sort of. I have a whole new mass air. The best place I have found so far to get it is Here.
Or you could just go to Pro-M and check it out for your self.
But I have an S&B open end filter like this.

I got the whole assembly from a friend but you can get the filter Here.

The stock style tube has a better radius but the Pro-M tube has to open to 4 inches. The stock tube only goes to 3.5 inches. The metal ones flow a little better and they have a hich flow one that is supposed to work but it looks kind of weird like this.


I am currently making my own out of carbon fiber. I have the mold just about finished now. I will post pictures of it soon.

Sleeper - would love to talk to you offline about your experiences with molds/fiberglass/carbon fiber. Am about to undertake duplicating my bumpers out of fiberglass or carbon fiber/epoxy and am a rookie. Can you pm me with your email address so I can ask some questions? thanks - michael

89Sleeper, that thing that Pro M sells as a high flow is pretty weird looking. Would it work on a 75mm Bullet? There are only two options I have seen for getting rid of the stock accordian tube and that is the C&L True Flow Pipe and the Densecharger Tube that they dont seem to advertise anymore.

Those fenderwell CAI's are a joke, it does what a stock airbox does but puts a bend before the maf.

No it will not work on a bullet because the outlet is 4 inches and for the bullet you need 3 1/2 inches.
As far as tubes go I would try this one from Tiny Avenger Motorsports .
They make it in black.

and Chrome or Jet Hot.


Or just make your own. That is what I am doing right now.
