I was staring at my newly installed VI the other day and I got an idea but I'm not sure if it's possible or not. I know the VI simply increases the volume when the valves open but what if you modified the cover to open another airway? Would there be a way to wire two MAF's so the engine would get a correct air reading or would you need to Y off of the single one? I don't know what gains would be seen if any but I thought I'd share and maybe in the future try it out.

 

What good are dual mafs when you still limited by tb and manifold intake volume size?

 

What I'm saying is, when the valves open up, instead of just opening another 'room' and increasing the volume of the intake, it opens another air supply connected to another intake system. The cover for the VI would have the top removed and connected to another filter.

 

There is no point. The engine could never possibly consume that much air. On the 3" maf, you would need to be flowing about 350hp before flow restrictions would become an issue.

 

The VI would become pointless then. The whole point is that the variable volume changes the resonance of the intake system. If you go messing with that, the gains would disappear...

 

Oh well, just a thought. Guess I'll just enjoy it the way it is.
