I have been looking at getting either the C&L 85mm mass air system with inlet pipe or the MAC 85mm system with their straight shot pipe. Generally I am not a huge fan of MAC but according to their "experts" it outflows any other 85mm unit on the market today, including the C&L. What are everyone's opinion? I plan to also purchase the Accufab Plenum/75mm TB combo in addition. Thanks!

I thought they had 80mm stock. I've been wrong before though. Thanks.

01s and older , 02 and newer are 85 and the IAT sensor is made in it also , thats why they have 6 wires instead of 4 , if you change it you will have to modify , cut and spice a separate IAT sensor in also , waste of money.

I actually just found some tech information that said that Ford redesigned them in 2002 but they still measured in at 80mm. That's what I thought. Also I understand that their business is sales and are trying to make money, but the claim that they can make 15hp with them is a complete lie?
