Are you keeping the std airbox on a mafless set-up

What power are you seeking?

No APS induction kit with a fully forged engine currently running around 430 on a Simtek not that it makes any difference as i just want something to replace where the MAF sits

I've just caught up with the car in your project thread - so my reply is bit a bit silly really

Not seen a bespoke cover to replace the MAF, but a bit of ali sheet cut to size and sealed in place with silicon would be the cheapest way.

The MAF could always be left unconnected, but I guess you are thinking about what restriction it offers to air flow?

Yes it was silly

It isn't flat (it's stepped) where the MAF sits so it needs to be machined, have asked Chris at CDF if he could make something and hes gonna get back to me

The MAF is unconnected and yes i would imagine there is some restriction to air flow, as Tescos say every little helps
