Nope you haven't. Dan fr has shown me a samco which said k04 and awesome said it wouldn't but after checking again after this post they said it would.

Loss of torque during off boost driving, or delayed onset of boost (lag)? I noticed a delayed onset of boost and poor response from the turbo with different MAF pipes that I tried
MAF scaling in the software has to be matched to the intake. Revo software is calibrated to run the
Revo intake - If you run the standard MAF housing (from the airbox) you end up with low readings and fuel trims of over 15%, along with poor response and drivability. Regardless of the size similarity, the readings are not the same when moving from an oval to a round intake, and with the MAF sensor positioned at different points in the intake (Central, or closer to the edge)
NO aftermarket intakes read the same as the original airbox, the issue is whether a tuner adjusts the MAF scaling for the intake (which is no mean feat). I don't know which other tuners do, and which do not.

Think you're getting quotes mixed up.... It was me that wrote:

Dan fr. No look at madones post he quoted me and said that comment above. Plus you showed me a samco hose on awesomes webpage. No one has shown me a forge one.

Ordered the samco one from awesome. 3-4wks wait.
