He has fixed the trailer hitching problem and now i surges at low speed and idle is up and down. He tells me it needs a 4 inch tube to cure it. |

If you want to keep the warranty I wouldn't change the inlet tube. Plus the tube is not the issue, its the tune.

What was outcome with this????? I am at my tuner now and we are running into a small issue at random moments which he believes to be coming from too big of a tube and MAF position.......:(

Although it is GREAT for the BIG Peak HP number Driveability suffers due to lost resolution. The Gen5 MAF has a Range of 16000 Hz, Even some of our KILLER builds only Reach 14500 Hz so we have Plenty of MAF in a 4 in pipe. Stock Cars with no Supercharger will go to 9000 Hz With the 4.5 inch KB pipe at 10 psi boost we Rarely see more than 9000 Hz Going to a 4 inch intake tube restores resolution, and torque calculations done by the TCM, so this is especially important on the L99 Cars. Also a Stock Car will Idle around 2500 Hz the KB with 4.5 in Pipe will Idle around 1500 Hz, so Again Lost Resolution. Ted.

Thanx Ted. So in the end a 4in tube with a MAF sensor in the correct position should cure this for us L99 lower hp cars? This is what my tuner recommends.

So you didn't go smaller intake? I ask because My tuner also uses EFI and said the car 95% perfect but gets that weird freq loss in the intake and suggests a smaller tube.
