maf housing
Hey guys I'm thinking about doing a custom cai set up. I currently have the hps silicon hoses and k&n drop ins. I love the set up, and felt a gain on higher rpms. But I really wanna make it a cold air with smoother airflow than the factory airbox. I know the airboxes are pretty much cold air intakes on there own, but just want to do something different to see if it improves. My question is, where can I get a pair of maf housings and what size should I be looking for? Any suggestions? Please and thank you.

I think the guys that have custom made their CAI, just used the stock MAF housing and built the rest of the system. At least that's what it looks like from the pictures in their threads -

Actually, it looks like Modshack ended up making his own MAF housings later on-

Ok so I just pmed modshack and he's not making them anymore. Does anyone know where I can find a set, or will it work if I take a dremmil to the stock box and leave the factory housing? Cause if I'm not mistaking, the factory housing is about the same size as the stillen g3 set uparent they?

I'm that first link. Honestly I don't think you need to go bigger. The stock size is the same size as the stillen gen 3. I'm now 2.75" OD and gained nothing I believe. If you must, I just got the pipe and housings off eBay from a guy and welded it up.
DIY cai?

What if I use the stock housing? And then fabricate my piping 2.5 the rest of the way?
