Spring has sprung

Was great to drive the GN yesterday. Running a new 4" maf housing with a new style gm blade maf, so its true 4" from filter to turbo. Car runs fines so far, great idle, no tip in, great response, lil more sensitive to fan wash but nothing crazy. By that i mean you will see a very slight change in rpm but slight. Im going to fab up a wall to help with that and box the filter in some. Havent went WOT yet until i get this winter storage gas out. The sound is greatly increased with the larger freer flowing setup. Heres a pic of it...not finished with the engine bay yet so a few things look screwy.

Nice engine bay! I'm so glad to see the warm weather finally too.

Update to this, and I was pleasantly surprised my boost actually went up a few psi after changing to this new MAF setup. My thoughts were my setup had a bottle neck and that was my old filter. Old setup was a 3" cone k&n to ls1 maf then 4" to turbo. 3" filter was used just because I had it and at the time with the new engine I used it just to get the car going. And thought it was a bit of a restriction but not 4 psi worth it waswas.
