but doesnt that mean the fuelling is going to be all over the place?

The ecu is able to correct the fuel mixture to a certain point (+/-25%). These corrections are shown within the fuel trims in block 032 of VCDS.

Whether or not the maf housing on your aftermarket intake is larger than the oem airbox, there will still be a lot more air ingested into the engine, therefore you will see healthy power gains. But as i said before, you may see slightly lower airflow readings than you would expect if the diameter of the intake pipe is larger than standard.

well according to this http://www.awesome-gti.co.uk/product.php?xProd=5714

"After months of development, NEUSPEED has developed an intake pipe size that matches the factory MAF exactly. Because of this fuel trims are not affected and will not trigger any DTCs. In addition, eliminating the OE plastic MAF housing showed an increase in airflow, as no pre-screen is required to reduce turbulence when air is routed through the long piping with its smooth mandrel bends".

they claim that no change in maf readings from standard?
so in theroy what i record on vcds should be apples with apples compared to my standard air box?

Yep. From memory the oem maf housing measures 66.55mm. If the neuspeed is identical in size then no adjustment to fueling is needed, therefore the fuel trims in vcds will be identical to that of the standard airbox. But in theory the airflow readings will be higher due to the less restrictive pipework and filter. BHP and torque should be increased substantially too as the standard airbox is about as free flowing as lumpy mash potato.
 
All of the top branded intakes have a matched size MAF housing..

Mine is back on the RR on Sat so lets see how it goes (and if the clutch lasts...)

yup thats what i was trying to say in my earlier post , its suppossed to be identical to the original maf size so air flows should be read the same , but i know comparing my standard air box readings to my p flow there is about 2-4 gs different ?
and thats a third gear run at WOT

That will be interesting mate to see :) i wonder if you could cheekily ask them for the maf readings while its on there ;)
 
I'm already taking my laptop for that very reason, Rob ;)

cool , i will be interested in the results mate
have you got a cold air feed to it?
and have you removed the scoop from the front slam panel?

mines removed and added a few gs.
i loked at the extension to make it a full cai but it wont fit our cars the light unit sticks ot too far and prevents the pipe from entering the wing
 
2nd best mod I did! After the remap. Sounds bloody amazing. And not so much like darth baser now the map is there lol
 
K1Shane....336bhp with just a P-Flo & Revo stage 1.....Very nice!

I called Revo the other day actually...I requested a Revo Stage 2+ & a MillTek exhaust system fitted...Grand total= £2100

Wow

Lol thanks, I had to get the guy to check again as I was in disbelief. It ran 284bhp on standard map with p-flo. He told me it was just one of the 'strong' engines and of course running it totally on v-power has helped too
 
Fitted at last...Sounds so nice

Cant post up pics as i need to make 15 posts...But looks the dogs. Got the red version.
 
Finally got round to fitting mine today. Every thing came off the car so easily and it only took me an hour..................... Then i realised they had sent me the wrong kit, it has no pipe for the DV return hose.

my mess
