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

Know whats funny, I sanded 3 places, the 2 vanes and rounded the edges, your sanding all over the place. Talk about uneven sanding. Plus, I wasn't trying to do the same thing as you. I'm trying to have the sharp points to cut through the air to get a more accurate reading. Which makes much sense since everything else on the housing is left untouched. Now your trying to fool the maf sensor into thinking there's less air going into it, this is a big problem with yours. It will run lean. YOU WANT THE MAF TO READ THE AIR RIGHT. The ecu controls the amount of air and gas going into the car. This ecu is not like the others. Not trying to copy your maf housing, making it better. You say it will screw up their cars, BUT HAVE YOU TRIED IT YET, NO.
My car runs like a champ. Oh boy, wasn't a hater since day 1 my friend. I actually backed you up. I never said Injen was good because I'm a big K&N fan. When you started hating and getting a big head on other aftermarket intakes and saying yours is the best, this is when I went on my mission to prove you wrong. You can say your intake is good, don't go bashing on K&N, Injen, AEM, Fujita, etc.... You bash on them, you bash on the people who own the intake. Your calling them stupid because they bought it. You ever see it that way, no. I have both of those tubes and the CRV is smaller. Your not correcting any mistakes, if people want to make their own using this method, let them. They can do it with stock vanes or sanded. All I know, the way I do mines, less touched places = factory specs left alone. The more places you modify (sand), the more problems you will have. The vacuum hose is hooked up to the silicone tubing and I had a valve cover breather on. If you followed it right, all people would have to do is add another custom bulkhead fitting to the silicone tube so they wouldn't have to use the breather. I chose to use the breather instead. Sorry, if I mess up cars, all my cars wouldn't have gone 250,000 miles and over (racing miles with mods). A good 75% of those 250k miles is high rev, dogging the **** out of the car and racing people. As for private messaging, remember your the first one to say something to me in pm. I wouldn't waste my time on messaging you, there's no need to. I don't hide things, if I say it, I'll tell you in the public forums. I'll tell it your face. You barked up the wrong tree when you first messaged me, X. Let that be a lesson to you if you can't handle it.

This is the reason why so many people emailed me or private messaged me saying,"Thank You" for showing them where to begin or even giving them a idea on how to improve it. If someone makes a better one then yours and mines, am I going to bash on them, NO. All I will say,"Glad I could you help with info to make a better one then mines." You have alot to learn lil man, your attitude and unprofessional.

Like I said before, everything is going as planned.
