Slowsol: I know some of them, but look how those guys reacted to shabby's airflow numbers (hpt forum)

shabby: oh common man, you saw their replies about your experience with GMPP tune, besides that I didn't saw more than 35-36lbs/min from their logs.

I think one of them said he was seeing 37lbs/min, not sure about the others since they don't talk about it anymore.

Update with new hand made scoops. Still holding 23psi. It might work to good. Last week I was running in heavy rain. Must been some standing water at the base of the hill. Because I sucked up some water in the intake. Enough to cause misfire codes. Not the 1st. time running in the rain, but was the heaviest & the 1st. time I every got a code with my CAI mod. I have no problems ever sense in rain & shine.

Removed Ram air scoops & installed block off plates over the hose. Still having problems in heavy rain. The air filter will get wet enough, if I go WOT the motor falls flat on it's face. But runs fine up to 3\4 throttle.

thats because you dont have anywhere for the rain to go once it enters the airbox.  shoulda tried cutting some slits or holes in the back of the intake box so the water can run out the back.

IMO drainage holes are not going to keep the air filter dry. Because the water & air  (moist air) as a direct path to the air filter. That's my over site The moist air wont separate until they hit the air filter. Once air filter become saturated, it will not flow enough air for WOT.
