Nice list there Mike, and are you going to mod mom's ride too

I'm taking mom out in Sunday and me and my wife are going out Saturday night. She works from 8-4 on Saturday so that leaves me with 8 hours to sneaks these in. And I also have to modify my projecter. I'm gonna prep Friday after work to make Saturday go as smooth as possible.

No, wait, I need the 2010+. However, you pointed me in the right place. Pages 38+ in the 2010 FSM... which seem about the same thing.
I chose 2011 as your year...not sure how it redirected to a diff year? But none the less NP, they def help out

The AAM intake is interesting. It has sleeve that is inserted by the MAF for those that will not get a custom calibration. (I really dislike the expression "tune")

Hey weren't you the guy I met at Eric's shop with the graphite shadow sedan? Did the guy ever grab those RHFC from you?

This is because if you change the diameter where the maf sensor goes, your computer will be tricked into thinking there is less air coming in. The computer calculates the amount of air by speed/velocity. Increased area means a lower velocity if that makes sense. When ever I installed my AEM's, (larger diameter where the maf is), my A/F was at 15.4 by 4K rpms lmao so it's definitely needed if you're not tuning your vehicle.

Does the AAM come with a rain guard option like the Stillen?? or do you plan on using dry-bags for weather protection?

No rain guard. I don't know if they plan to make one

Mass air flow sensor does not sense air velocity. It measures the amount of voltage necessary to maintain a given temperature of the hot wire, which is determined by, well, mass flow past the wire. Speed/density systems like those fitted in Hondas use velocity and manifold absolute pressure (MAP) as the primary measuring device. While the G does calculate MAP, it's used as a tweak to what's sensed by the hot wire.

The larger MAF does require new/modified ECU fuel maps so the computer can determine the proper fuel requirement for the new voltage range. Air velocity doesn't figure in for the G air flow sensor. It's common on turboed SR20s to use Mustang Cobra MAFs since they can measure larger masses of air than the stockers. They both use the same voltage range (1-5V?) but the MAF diameter determines what 1V represents in air mass flowing past the hot wire.

Here is two 6MT Skylines with a beautiful NYC Skyline. Love this photo.

Black sedan owner is Val from D.C area from National G Club and as far as I know is a member on here, and will be attending the August meet up.

Thanks Phil ! yeah more like Weehawken above Lincoln Tunnel, but this was a private area with very luxury apartments overlooking Hudson river and the view of upper Manhattan, we managed to be there a few minutes with the security guard there and then he kicked us out. Still came out pretty damn good considering we got to be there few minutes, and it's not easy to shoot dark cars especially black at night
