I too am familiar with the lsx engine and the supposed reason for the "screen" was for a more accurate maf reading at idle...I took mine out and had no ill effects...I doubt that it made much difference but mine was removed to remove any possible restriction.

People need to understand there are no gains from intake mods on this Toyota 5.7 P E R I O D !

If this is true then why did I gain mph from my airraid setup??? I don't buy your undocumented statement until I see independent dyno graphs proving this...you need some actual data before many of us believe what you have to say! There may be fairly small gains with an air intake on the stock ecu, but there are gains. I'd venture to guess that with proper tuning there is a reasonable amount of power to be had.

Why do you need to respond so negative...I like many others are trying to learn something here.


Timmy go find Lassie . . . . . .
