Has anybody had a custom mandrel bent induction pipe fitted between the maf and tb on their 5ltr, or for that matter, 6cyl?

What power gain did you get and was it noticable?

I'm thinking of getting it done on my car (read sig below) and was wondering if the $200+ price tag to get one made is worth it!

I think you will find it will have minimal effect with the stock MAF. I would think that the standard piping would be less restrictive than the MAF anyway. I am getting one in the next week or so, we should swap it to your car and do a before and after on the dyno day.

Sounds like a plan Grant. So you intend on going to the dyno day then? Thats great, I'll wait till then to see true results.

Cheers for that

Yeah I will be there, just trying to get a few more kw out of it before then.

Seems like the plan for everyone mate.

I just put my 2 stage switchable shift kit from 9psiEB last night. Not that will add a skerrick of power but it will definitely add to the fun of driving the car again.
I'll think of something sooner or later.
