Wow, I went pale white when I read that first comment Rick. Haha though.
Our final numbers ended up with 256 RWHP, but we are having some tuning issues. So I expect a little more out of it.
We did note that removing the MAF screen is good for 8 RWHP. I pulled it on and off about 4 times yesteray just to make sure it wasn't affecting the AFR. The AFR stayed at a steady 13.5 for the entire time, with ot without the MAF.

8hp for removing the screen is notable, IMO. That is crazy!

I just purchased a used, like-new C43 with 57K miles to replace my 1997 C36 and I am really interested in improving the low-end torque between idle and 2500 revs as it is a bit flat compared to that of my C36. Above, the C43 is obviously faster. Please keep us posted!

Might have a bad MAF sensor. As mine was going bad, it felt stronger at partial throttle than it did at full throttle.

I let my friend drive my c43(he owns a c36) and he says my car has a lot more low end torque and is overall smoother in acceleration
congratz on the new car btw, what color??

on the NA 55 motors, removing the screens is NOT a good idea. Yes you may get a big more power at WOT, but at partial throttle & daily driving & idle... its horrible, motor shakes around, very erratic acceleration, poor transmission shifts, and overall bad behavior.
Leave the screens in and look to other areas for more power.
