No intake pipes... drawbacks?

[J. Fast]

My custom 3" inlets, same length, and very few bends.

Haha, that thing is full! Looks good!

My rear turbo intake is like that, but I just have a filter on the front turbo because I don't have a way to fab up a pipe for the front. I'll be taking care of that soon and it'll probably be somewhat like Chris' setup. It just depends where it'll all fit.

FYI some very successful members have actually run the maf in blow through configuration, but BEFORE the BOV. I.E. you could run it near the fuse box area.

I'm going to vent the BOV for one. Also, the BOV is just another spot for a potential leak. I know, a small one if it ever leaked, but I want it as close to the TB as possible, so there's no chance of one occuring.

Not to mention, I already fabbed up my GM MAF DNP Ypipe

if your going to run blow through you might as well go GM and put the bov in front of the maf so that you have the option to vent it or re-circulate it. i dont get why someone would go through all the work of relocating the stock maf, making some custom ic pipes that will fit the stock maf (its oval not round iirc) and then put the bov behind it. I’m not saying it cant be done, because it obviously has been done and apparently worked fine. just seams like a lot of work for essentially a stock setup…

it is an issue with space for some. The member I'm talking about has run in the 130s in the 1/4 so it does work.

I personally don't see the point of running a maf on a turbo car at all, but it obviously works really well.
