    Thank you. Sorry for the terrible I-Phone pics. and the Data log came out like crap as well. If anyone has any suggestions on how to get that uploaded properly let me know.

    I like it! Thumbs up. I have the DOS and really like it despite whether or not it improves performance. I would like to swap out the stock plastic induction pipe for a silicone/hard pipe eventually. The stock pipe tends to flex and try to torque it's way off the turbo inlet.

    Great job!

    On the MCS the turbo inlet is 1.75" and the MAF is 2.75" you can run the 1.75-2.5 bending 90 degree reducer with pipe to a 2.75-2.5 45 degree reducer connecting the Maf. Works pretty well.

    A little over a week now with the new filter setup and still extremely happy with the mod. I have been running the turbo inlet pipe for over a year now and highly recommend getting one!!
