After my wheels and tires get installed, the gears or this mod will be my next power mod. If a pumpkin with the gears installed would show up in the private classifieds section, it would make my decision easier.

However, I might get some sway bars first if there is a good Black Friday deal to get that basic mod out of the way.

Takeda for sure but you're going to want to delete that MAF section at 2.5". Buy the MAF housings and pipe off ebay and either weld it in or use 2.75" couplings to attach it. That's what I did to the CAI I made. You will need a retune though and you won't be able to drive to the dyno with them one. What I did was use couplings, drove with my 2.5" installed and slapped the 2.75" on while on the dyno.

So I've decided to pay for a locals uprev license to get this moving along (cheaper than you think ). We will be tuning his G37 as is right now with CAI, HFC and CBE. I will then be adding my parts, do a base run to see what they do alone, and tune again. So all of you that have been waiting, wait no longer.

As I thought talking with the tuner these parts WILL show the greatest gains for FI guys! So if 500hp isn't enough then come see me. The tune is setup for November 30th at 3pm at Covert Tuning in Columbus, which by the way, nice cars! Currently 4 TT Lambos sitting around with 100% CNC custom manifolds with integrated BOV's, 4" intake pipes, CNC exhausts, headers etc etc.

Stay tuned.

Aren't the Taketa's necked down/reduced to 2.50" at the MAF for about 3" ?
I also think it depends if the install included the cut-out at the two air inlet location that both these CAI's use. For me, I have both and have stuck with the Taketa's. These TBs are also on my list.

^ There was a CAI a while back ( like 3 years ago or somethin ) called "Akuma" , that intake was 2.7" all around even in the MAF area, too bad they're not making them anymore, searched everywhere for a used setup but with no luck ..

Why the heck are the good things always discontinued ?! i don't get it !!

I remember Covert Tuning Dynamics. It's that company that a guy called David made to build his LP2000-2 SV TT since no shop would accept to build a 2000hp Lambo Murcielago. Did this car even get a quarter mile run in?

Anyway..can't wait to see the results.

Yes they do neck down. What I did was buy 2.75" pipe off eBay and a new MAF housing and welded it on. You could cut that section out and reattach with two couplings so you could drive to the tuner. Then there throw the new section on and tune for it. This is what I did too.

Like I said above buying some pipe and a new housings with couplings is super cheap and easy.

Not sure. That's the owners car. Right now I guess it has a slight problem with the TB's. There so much air flow that the TB's are being forced closed by the boosted air. What came to mind is my TB with profiled shaft and thinner everything

It actually uses 102mm LS1 TB's so since a vet only has 1 TB the air tries to move both in the opposite directions. The tuner just got back from Motec training in Cali so they'll prob increase the voltage on the one side to fix it. If I had $9000 Id try Motec.

No just mine. I still have everything on my car but this won't be a back to back. Same dyno and tuner but not much to go on. All you'll see is one tuner vs another.
