Stillen Results...

It was where the air filters were sitting that we had to move. The MAF voltages were unbalanced when you put the big fan on it like you were driving.

The only cats I have are Berk Sports cats. If I put them on I am assuming I am going to have to tweak the map?

Alternatively, would putting restrictor rings in the exhaust help lift the pressure?

If the MAFs were unbalanced I would guess you left the plastic piece off that mounts to the bumper and blocks air from the lower filter. The guys who installed mine did that.

Nope, it was a metal shield and I did the installation myself and did everything in the instructions.

We then ran tests on the MAF, tried new ones, tried different positions monitoring. Only balanced place we could get was left side front bumper.

You did better than the shop that installed mine then. I had to build my own because that one wasn't wide enough, If I coasted down an off ramp air would get around it so I made a wider one the that wraps below and up behind the lower filter and haven't had a problem since.
