Anyone fitted an Airhammer CAI to their LFX engine?

Well when I first had my otr on it did have a bit of a flat spot like it wouldn't pull any harder.

For maybe 1k revs? or all the way from 3-6k or so? for an example.

Put it back to stock and see if the power is restored. If so, then ditch the air hammer. Life is too short to waste time on "mods" that don't produce.

Will be trying this on the weekend if I can't get it better. Start from square one again

Is that the stock MAF meter? did you install it in the correct orientation? Usually has an arrow sign pointing in the direction of air flow.

Definitely odd that it would cause lack of power then. I'm guessing there is a pod filter on the other end inside the air box?

What do you mean by "I had put a fair bit of pipe into the air filter though as it wouldn't fit otherwise".

Do you need to cut the pipe shorter?
