Bend before the MAF = turbulence and runs like crap FTL As far as bling goes I'm sure its not horrible...but it looks just like aluminum stock. Shoulda put the money towards a blowa
I had that exact same model CAI for my 02 GT...it is a MAC. It was OK in terms of added power but it was a BITCH to get into the fender and did my the car run a little rich.
Oh yeah...and the bling didn't last too long, it dulls quickly unless you routine polish it.

While in a general sense this statement is true, laminar airflow across the MAF sensor is nowhere near as critical in a NA application as it is when running forced induction.
So... unless you're currently running a blower or turbo I wouldn't be concerned with a bend before the MAF.
