rich , its a decent piece but done expect any decent boost thru it . wayne bought one , i looked it over and they never welded the inside of the plen. you got air pressing against it , they should have welded in and out .. we are going to chop open his and weld the inside throughly then weld the lower runners to the plen as opposed to bolting it on

I know everyone is busy!!!
But in cleaning up the engine bay of plugs and wires I dont need.

With a standalone I know you run the wideband to it.
As far as my factory O2 sensors do I have to keep one for the factory ECU to read.so I don't get a check engine light.

If I recall correctly when I went standalone it change the stock Maff setup to a map therefore eliminating the o2 sensors you won't get a check engine light and it won't effect the computer, but then again my CEL comes on every once in a blue moon for a few seconds.. (Never looked into why)
