You would want the maf to read it right so it can adjust the A/F on its own. Talk about melting pistons and such. I wouldn't buy that maf housing or do it your way. The way I slanted mines is trying to give the maf sensor a more accurate read so it can adjust on its own.
can you at least do research before you post stuff like this, i never said anything about tricking a sensor or anything of that matter. even if you have your dremel on low speed it will still give you UNEVEN vanes, why not post some pics the inside of your MAF, just so you can show everyone what im talking about... i FILE MY VANES not just sand them. yet you claim up and down that i sand them down with just sand paper. its great that you did the DIY, but if it wasen't for me you wouldn't know what to even try to copy. so why don't you leave it for the people that know what they are talking about and can actually complete the task of modded there MAF themselves because
1 they have the tools and files
2 they have alot of experiance sanding and shaping plastic
3 understand and know how this modd makes everything work.

you have been a hater on my intake since day1 claiming that the injen is better, i proved you wrong with dynos, then you PM me with threatening messages and how you will create your own better intake that is nothing like mine. then you clearly are going off some prototype V2 maf housing pics that i posted up. you tried to prove in your video that the Si tube is larger but in fact its not. the opening are larger but the actual volume of air through out the tube is not. as i stated over and over again i mainly use the CRV tube because its straighter and has a stock look that has the stock location for your breather and PCV hose, ( not a vacum hose as you stated in your video) everyone will see the night and day difference over my my DIY to yours. thanks for helping people screw up there MAFs
