so i took the cold air off. put the stock box back on. there was no difference. i got bored the other day and thought id try this,

to me it feels like it does a bit better than the stock box. made a heat shield for it at work and its been running good ever since.

I am running a Mustang V8 cone air box with Amsoil EAA filter. Then a 2 inch tube supplies cool air to the air box.

as far as i understand the fine oil mist from the filter may kill your MAF eventually. the stock element offers way more filter surface area

Yepp

It took maximum a week to kill my MAF with that kind of filter.

What would happen if you ran without the MAF?

On previous VW, BMW, and Porsche I have used racing filters for years with no issue.

Thanks
