Someone still needs to make something that works.

IMO, the 5th gen stock intake and cat back exhaust systems are NOT hurting the performance.

It's electronics ('tuning') and headers.

is it required to remove the MAF in order to put the stock intake back on? It almost seems impossible to move my hand freely to tighten the bolt to the airbox w/o moving the MAF but Im afraid if I do move it the SES will go off for no reason..
