I'm still betting the Gen III is really making power by leaning out the MAF signal using a (slightly) larger diameter tube at the sensor. That sorta explains why the first two versions did very little in terms or performance. It really doesn't have to be much bigger. A millimeter or two would likely be all that's needed.

It would be great of someone could measure the diameter of the MAF tube on the Gen 3 vs the OEM pipe.
