    Depends if you can get in on a group dyno day. Usually you pay for a session, not just 1 dyno run since you average the runs. I paid around 80 dollars each for 2 sessions for before my headers/tune and after my headers/tune for my old mercedes c55.

    Tap the "start a conversation" in the left highlighted box.

    Second tank fill up since install. One 200 mile round trip into mountains and back - all highway - averaged 26mpg. Filled up at 440 miles (highway and local street) and mpg was 24. Still 10% ethanol winter blend. Have to say mgp is better with kit than with out.

    Yeah I figured out it's called a strange thing here...rather than a PM.

    Same thing for me. Prior version of TW site was the PM. Guess the programmer got paid by the letter.

    I believe they actually changed to a different forum software. I think they were vBulletin before.

    What ever it is it is way better than the upgrade RoadGlide.org did to their site. It went from simple to 50 shades of shit. PM was a pretty simple and easy tool though.

    Information like this is what lead me to create the first successful air box mod kit for the 5.7 Tundra.

    Thanks for the post!

    Next time I get some money freed up, I will Be ordering one of these kits. I am just wondering if you have looked at all into making or if anyone knows of a company making a intake tube that is all one size? preferably with a resonator delete too.

    What is the inside diameter and is it the same size at the air box side as well as the throttle body side?

    From what I have heard they are both 70mm. But I haven't checked myself. I don't have a micrometer.

    I have a pretty good connection with a silicone hose company although from preveious dealings with curved pieces I know they're not cheap. Obviously larger quantities help bring the cost down but we'll see.
