There's no reason why it wouldn't.

There's a guy on here with a Whipple who relocated the MAF to the pressure side and his peak boost went from 7 to 8 1/2 psi. Oh, yeah, it was me.

oh yeah, there was this guy... nice

there was another thread awhile back, i think it was the new j tube/bigger throttle body thread. people were talking about how important geting rid of pre blower/turbo intake restrictions are. i agree with this. it is hard for the turbo/blower to suck so any restriction before is a very bad thing. these compresors are made to blow so a restriction after the unit isn't nearly as big of a deal.

with the radix it is imposiable to put the sensor after the compresor so you dont do it but anytime you can put it after thats what i would do. it has been prooven to take the abuse just fine.

For whatever reason it went way rich when I moved it. Allen redid the MAF map and it runs good now. It was in the low 70°s a while ago at night, and it ran real good. Now I'm being scolded for not having installed my wide band yet. After the wide band I'm going to try an open filter attached directly to the throttle body.
