I ordered something cheap from Ebay to find out if its going to work, then will replace with a good quality hose if it works.

I am almost thinking a 90 will work, since i can cut it down a hair, since the TB with spacer sticks out about an inch or more than the stock one.

Fingers crossed....

When ETMX ran the fastest bolt-on time of 13.4, he was flowing 33 lb/min through his MAF with his MAP sensor reading 0.99 BAR, just 1% vacuum draw. The LFX can not suck enough air, that is why nitrous and forced induction makes such a huge difference in these cars.
You win.

Sounds like a plan to me. Hope it comes fast.

Notice how at the start of the video they rev it and nothing happens, then you hear some one say "hold up, hold up a sec". Notice how many cars come with rubber elbows on their stock intake, even the Camaro V6 has it for a small portion.

Lol Jason!!.... Redhotls1 I hear you, I have been through a lot of hurdles with tuning from stock..to cammed...to supercharged and only after the supercharger did I get a really nice tune and all were dyno tunes... I now just added Jason's update port with Overkills 80mm and rounding up necessary items to go 3.5 maf tube and fine tune with Will ...

My tune is "on truck for delivery today"

I installed my jacfab ported intake and spacer last night and it is well worth the investment!! These v6's should of came this way from the factory in my opinion. Thank you Jason and Will for all your guys hard work to make our cars a lot more fun to drive
