My tuner told me that if I get a MAF translator and get rid of my MAF sensor and get a custom 3'' intake pipe he could retune me and get me about 30-45 more wheel horse power.

On the stock VIII turbo (without methanol), I'd be pleased with 330whp/330wtq. I have a short ways to go and I'm hoping that once I put the hotside and O2 housing on as well as putting on a test pipe instead of the high-flow cat I presently have on the car, that it'll put me there. I've never heard/read about removing the MAF sensor and replace it with a MAF translator. I'm no technician by any means, so maybe someone would chime in and enlighten me a bit. Because I autocross every chance I get, I'm not looking into any turbo upgrades unless it's just the stock IX turbo. I believe the largest I'll ever go would be the Green/methanol combination which is something that might come along after my next trip to Iraq (I hate that I even have to go back by the way). In the meantime, I plan on upgrading my suspension with the Works Sport springs and a nice rear sway bar to go along with a set of Azenis. I'll keep you posted on how things turn out.
